2016 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · KU66 CCY

A pattern of consistent roadworthiness is evident through the vehicle's MOT history, which shows a series of passes without recorded defects since its initial testing. While the record includes two instances of failure in 2023 and 2025, these were resolved during the same testing sessions, resulting in successful retests and subsequent passes. The most recent test on 01 October 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded, suggesting a stable mechanical status regarding the components inspected by the DVSA. The mileage profile for this 2016 Peugeot 3008 is notably low, with 41,558 miles recorded over approximately ten years of operation. This equates to an average annual accumulation of roughly 4,156 miles, which is significantly below the UK national average for a vehicle of this age. Mechanically, such a low usage pattern can imply reduced wear on high-mileage components like the engine, gearbox, and drivetrain, but it also means the vehicle has likely spent significant periods stationary. This usage profile necessitates a close inspection of rubber components and seals that can perish or harden due to lack of regular movement and thermal cycling. Given the absence of specific advisories or defects in the recent MOT history, there are no recorded issues with suspension bushes, brake pipes, or structural corrosion to provide a specific diagnostic starting point. However, because the low mileage suggests the vehicle has been driven infrequently, a prospective buyer should pay close attention to the condition of the braking system and tyres during a test drive. Listen for any rhythmic clicking or unevenness that might indicate flat-spotting on the tyres from long periods of standing, and check for any hesitation or sponginess in the brake pedal which could relate to the movement of the calipers and hydraulic components. Further inspection should focus on the engine bay and underbody for any evidence of fluid weeping or dried residue, as low-use vehicles can sometimes develop minor oil or coolant leaks from seals that have not been regularly lubricated by operational temperatures. During the test drive, monitor the steering for any pulling or vibration and listen for knocks or knocks from the suspension when navigating uneven surfaces, as these can be indicators of wear in the bushings or dampers that may not have been caught if the vehicle has not been subjected to heavy load or high-speed motorway use.
