2020 Peugeot 3008 1.5L Diesel · KS20 YVZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a concerning pattern of neglected consumable components. The most recent test in September 2025 at 31,962 miles flagged thin rear brake pads and pitted, scored brake discs. While the car passed, the presence of these issues indicates that the previous owner deferred brake maintenance until the components reached a state of significant wear rather than following a preventative service schedule. At 31,962 miles over six years, the Peugeot averages approximately 5,300 miles per year, which is significantly below the national average for a modern SUV. The mileage accumulation is consistent annually, with roughly 5,000 miles driven between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 6,600 miles leading into late 2025. This low-usage profile often contributes to the surface corrosion noted on the brake discs during the August 2024 test. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system and tyres. The record shows a recurring issue with tyres wearing near the legal limit or showing uneven wear in both 2023 and 2024, suggesting potential alignment issues or a lack of attention to basic upkeep. The buyer should verify that the rear discs and pads have actually been replaced since the 2025 advisory, as the tester noted pitting and thinning. Furthermore, the calipers should be checked for binding that may have caused the uneven disc wear.
