2016 Peugeot 2008 1.2L Petrol · KS16 FOP

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent MOT in February 2026 at 58,622 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows significant improvement in recent months, as the minor mechanical and lighting issues identified in 2023 and 2024 have been resolved. This progression suggests the current owner is proactive in addressing de-minis faults before they escalate into test failures. At 58,622 miles over ten years, the Peugeot has covered a low average of approximately 5,862 miles per year. The usage pattern appears consistent, with a gap of roughly 3,600 miles between the June 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 2,700 miles leading into the latest inspection. While low mileage generally reduces wear on drivetrain and engine components, it can sometimes lead to corrosion-related issues or rubber seal degradation if the vehicle sits for extended periods. A buyer should pay close attention to the suspension and alignment geometry. The 2022 test flagged all four tyres for uneven wear on the inner and outer edges, indicating a persistent alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. Although the record shows no recent tyre advisories, a physical inspection is required to ensure that the control arms or shocks are not causing further tracking issues or premature tyre replacement. The braking system also warrants scrutiny. The tester flagged pitted and scored front brake discs in 2023 and worn discs in 2024. While the 2026 test passed without comment, the buyer should verify the current thickness and condition of the discs and pads to check for binding calipers or glazing. The previously noted deteriorated registration plates and lamp failures from 2024 are minor cosmetic items that have clearly been addressed, requiring no further mechanical concern.
