2017 Land Rover Range Rover Velar 3.0L Diesel · K17 PRL

The 2016 Peugeot 508 presents a stable and reassuring maintenance trend, with the most recent MOT conducted on 5 June 2025 at 99,696 miles returning a clean pass with zero defects. This marks five consecutive passes without advisories or failures, indicating consistent upkeep and no emerging mechanical or structural concerns over the past five years. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a vehicle of this age. Between the June 2020 test at 88,306 miles and the June 2025 test at 99,696 miles, the car covered approximately 11,390 miles over five years, averaging around 2,280 miles annually in that window. Prior to that, the annual average was closer to 3,500 miles, suggesting a slight reduction in usage in recent years. The record is complete and consistent, with no gaps or anomalies that would raise suspicion about the vehicle's history. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should still conduct a thorough in-person inspection. The absence of advisories is encouraging, but it does not guarantee the absence of wear. Suspension components such as bushes, drop links, and shock absorbers should be checked for deterioration, as these are common failure points on the 508 platform beyond 90,000 miles. Brake discs and pads, particularly at the rear, merit close inspection for uneven wear or binding, even though no such issues were flagged. Tyre condition and age should be verified, as older tyres can degrade without triggering an MOT advisory until tread depth becomes critical. Structurally, the vehicle's underbody and sills should be examined for corrosion, especially around the rear subframe and inner wheel arches, which are known vulnerability areas on this model. The exhaust system and DPF function should also be assessed, as short recent journeys could lead to soot buildup not reflected in the test. Overall, the data suggests a well-maintained vehicle, but a pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic remains prudent to confirm its condition beyond the MOT snapshot.
