2016 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · KS16 LLW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following a period of mechanical inconsistency. The most recent MOT conducted on 25 April 2025 at 128,019 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This indicates an improvement over previous years where the vehicle failed to meet the standard. While the history shows intermittent failures, the current clean record suggests that the owner has addressed necessary repairs to bring the car back into full legal compliance. The mileage profile reflects high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 12,800 miles per year over its ten-year life. Between the 2023 test at 109,323 miles and the 2024 test at 117,429 miles, the car covered over 8,000 miles in a single year, indicating consistent long-distance road operation. This level of mileage typically puts significant stress on drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking systems. The consistent interval between annual tests suggests a regular maintenance schedule, though the high mileage increases the likelihood of accelerated wear on consumable parts. The recurring failures in May 2023 and May 2024 indicate that specific issues required immediate attention before the vehicle could pass. Although the record does not detail the specific mechanical reasons for these failures, a buyer must perform a thorough inspection of the suspension geometry and brake components, as these are common points of failure on high-mileage Peugeot models. Pay close attention to signs of corrosion on the exhaust system and the integrity of the wish arms to ensure that the high mileage has not led to structural degradation beyond standard wear.
