Our Verdict
This 2012 Peugeot 508 Active HDi presents a surprisingly clean recent MOT history with three consecutive passes. It offers solid diesel economy for UK buyers, provided its mechanical condition is verified with a thorough inspection.
When inspecting this grey 2012 model, verify the physical service history documentation to cross-reference the mileage milestones seen in the MOT records (101,340 miles in 2022 up to 115,515 miles in 2024). Test all cabin electronics, climate control, and the infotainment system, as electrical gremlins can occasionally affect French saloons of this era. Negotiate based on any upcoming service items, such as timing belt replacements which are typical at this age and mileage.
The 1997.0cc diesel engine in the Active HDi trim is designed for strong fuel economy on longer motorway journeys, typically returning competitive MPG figures for a large family saloon. Road tax and insurance group ratings should be checked against current DVLA and insurer bands using the registration KIG4012. Budget for routine diesel maintenance, including checks on the diesel particulate filter (DPF) and fuel injection components.
While the 2022, 2023, and 2024 MOT tests recorded zero defects, a physical inspection is still vital to assess components that MOT tests do not cover, such as the clutch, flywheel, and turbocharger health. Inspect the suspension bushes, brake discs, and pads for wear, and look underneath the grey bodywork for any signs of corrosion or leaks from the 2.0-litre diesel powerplant. Confirm that all dashboard warning lights illuminate correctly and extinguish upon starting the engine.
First registered in January 2012 and finished in grey, this Peugeot 508 Active HDi is powered by a 1997.0cc diesel engine. The vehicle has accumulated 115,515 miles as of its May 2024 MOT test. Notably, its last three MOT tests in 2022, 2023, and 2024 all resulted in clean passes with zero defects or advisories recorded.
Based on aggregate MOT data for 161 analysed vehicles of this type, the model achieves an average MOT pass rate of 81.9%.
