2015 Peugeot 508 2.0L Diesel · JBZ 131

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent test on October 30 2025 at 100,989 miles showed a pass only after a failure just two days prior. While the immediate faults regarding the tyre pressure monitoring system and registration plate lamp were rectified, the appearance of multiple suspension and driverelated defects suggests that the owner only addresses mechanical issues once they threaten to result in an MOT failure. At 100,989 miles, this 11-year-old Peugeot averages approximately 9,181 miles per year, which aligns with typical national averages for a vehicle of this age. The data shows consistent usage, with roughly 6,500 miles covered between the November 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 4,100 miles followed by the October 2025 test. This steady mileage pattern suggests the car has not been subjected to long periods of standing, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components and seals seen in neglected vehicles. A buyer must personally inspect the front suspension assembly closely, as both the nearside and offside suspension arm bushes were flagged as worn during the October 2025 test. Although these did not result in excessive movement at that time, they represent a known wear item that will soon require replacement. The offside front drive shaft constant velocity boot was also noted as severely deteriorated; the buyer should verify that this has been replaced with a new part, as a torn boot leads rapidly to expensive driveshaft failure. The recurring failure of the rear registration plate lamp across both 2024 and 2025 further reinforces a lack of basic pre-test inspections.
