2014 Peugeot 5008 1.6L Diesel · HV14 AEK

The 2014 Peugeot 5008 demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with no defects recorded in its most recent MOT on 2025-07-24 at 127,692 miles. The vehicle passed this test, aligning with its prior successful inspection on 2024-07-30 at 124,577 miles. However, two failed tests in 2024—on 2024-02-05 and 2024-01-31—occurred at similar mileages (121,796 and 121,401 miles) without recorded defects, suggesting potential administrative errors or minor non-compliances that were subsequently resolved. The absence of recurring mechanical issues in the record indicates consistent maintenance, though the frequent testing within a short timeframe raises questions about the reliability of the MOT process for this vehicle. The mileage of 127,692 miles over 12 years equates to an average of 10,641 miles annually, which is typical for its age. No significant gaps or spikes in mileage are evident, with the vehicle accumulating 3,121 miles between the 2024-02-05 and 2024-07-30 tests, and 3,115 miles between the 2024-07-30 and 2025-07-24 tests. This steady usage pattern suggests regular operation rather than prolonged inactivity, reducing concerns about corrosion or component degradation from standing. The MOT history lacks entries for structural rust, exhaust emissions, or suspension failures, which might indicate proactive maintenance but also highlights the absence of detailed technical diagnostics in the recorded data. A buyer should verify the condition of the braking system, as repeated MOTs without defects may mask underlying issues like worn brake discs or binding calipers. Suspension components, including coil springs and bushes, should be inspected for wear, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. While the MOT records show no structural corrosion or major faults, the lack of detailed advisories means a physical inspection is critical to confirm the integrity of the exhaust system, tyres, and body panels. The vehicle’s maintenance history reflects compliance but offers limited insight into long-term mechanical health, necessitating a thorough pre-purchase check.
