2018 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · JC55 ALF

A consistent record of clean MOT results defines this vehicle's recent history, with the most recent test on 20 January 2026 showing no defects. While the vehicle has maintained a high standard of roadworthiness over the last several years, a single advisory was noted in February 2023 regarding a nearside front tyre being worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge. Since that specific advisory, the subsequent tests in 2024, 2025, and 2026 have returned with no recorded defects, indicating a stable trend in the mechanical presentation of the vehicle's inspected components. The recorded mileage of 36,097 miles against an eight-year age profile represents a low annual accumulation of approximately 4,512 miles. This usage pattern suggests the vehicle has been driven significantly less than the UK average, which typically results in less wear on high-mileage components such as the engine, gearbox, and drivetrain. However, such low annual mileage can also mean the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary, which can occasionally impact the condition of rubber components and seals, though no specific defects related to long-term storage have been flagged in the official records. Given the specific advisory regarding the nearside front tyre in 2023, a prospective buyer should pay close attention to the front suspension and steering geometry during a test drive. The mention of the tyre being worn on the edge can sometimes be a symptom of incorrect wheel alignment or uneven wear caused by suspension component play. During the test drive, listen for any knocking or clunking sounds when navigating uneven surfaces or speed bumps, which could indicate wear in the suspension bushes or ball joints. Additionally, check for any pulling to one side when the steering wheel is released on a level road, as this would suggest an alignment issue that was not fully rectified or has recurred. Beyond the steering and suspension, the lack of recent advisories for braking or exhaust components is a positive indicator for the vehicle's current state. However, because the mileage is low, it is prudent to verify that the braking system remains responsive and free from any binding or unevenness. During the test drive, apply the brakes firmly to check for any pedal judder or unusual vibrations that might suggest disc or pad issues. While the MOT history is largely clear of structural or fluid-related defects, a thorough visual inspection of the tyre tread and sidewalls should be conducted to ensure the current set matches the standard of the recent passing certificates.
