2016 Peugeot 2008 1.2L Petrol · KS16 FOU

The vehicle's current roadworthiness is compromised by recurring mechanical faults, specifically involving suspension components and the drivetrain system, indicating a trend of worsening maintenance. The most recent test recorded on November 3, 2025, at 49,315 miles was passed, but this performance is undermined by the same defects found in the September 2023 test at 42,583 miles, which flagged a constant velocity boot split in the offside drive shaft joint. This recurring failure suggests that basic upkeep was likely skipped, as the vehicle has not undergone a full suspension overhaul or brake inspection since the 2022 test at 39,148 miles. The maintenance history shows a gap between the 2022 and 2023 tests, with the 2023 test failing at 42,583 miles, while the 2025 test is passed at 49,315 miles, indicating that the vehicle has not been serviced since the 2022 inspection. Regarding mileage, the vehicle is approximately 10 years old with a total of 49,315 miles recorded, averaging about 4,932 miles per year. While the low mileage suggests the vehicle may have been used more gently or stood for longer periods, the absence of a recent MOT test and the presence of structural defects mean that the accumulated wear is not purely consumable. The specific faults identified in the 2023 and 2025 tests highlight structural risks such as the constant velocity boot split, which requires professional intervention to prevent further deterioration of the drivetrain. A buyer must inspect the vehicle in person to verify the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and binding calipers, as well as the integrity of the exhaust emissions and structural integrity of the chassis. The presence of defects in the offside drive shaft joint and the constant velocity boot indicates that the suspension and drivetrain are not in good condition, necessitating a full suspension overhaul or brake inspection before the vehicle can be used for commercial or public transport.
