2016 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · KV16 SZR

The vehicle currently faces a high risk of failure due to a severe deterioration in the rear suspension and structural integrity, which is evidenced by a failed MOT in June 2025. Although the most recent test on June 17, 2025, at 79,864 miles was passed, this is not the only indicator of a critical mechanical condition. The failure occurred on June 16, 2025, at 79,860 miles, where the tester flagged binding rear brakes and a fractured or broken coil spring. This indicates that the structural integrity of the rear suspension has degraded significantly since the last valid test, suggesting that the vehicle may be in a state of disrepair that requires immediate assessment. Regarding the maintenance trend, the data reveals a clear pattern of rapid mileage accumulation that outpaces typical usage. The vehicle has maintained a consistent high mileage of approximately 79,864 miles per year, which is consistent with a 10-year-old car. However, this pattern is not clean; the history shows that the vehicle has failed twice on the rear axle, once in June 2025 and again in July 2023. This failure on the rear axle, combined with the failed test on June 16, 2025, strongly suggests that basic upkeep was skipped during the period. The failure on June 16, 2025, at 79,860 miles, where the tester flagged binding rear brakes and a fractured or broken coil spring, indicates that the vehicle has not undergone the necessary preventative maintenance since the most recent valid test. In conclusion, the vehicle's roadworthiness is compromised by a combination of a failed MOT in June 2025 and a history of rear axle failures. The vehicle is currently at high risk of failure, as the structural integrity of the rear suspension has deteriorated significantly since the last valid test. Buyers must inspect the vehicle in person for binding rear brakes and a fractured or broken coil spring, as well as for structural rust or corrosion, given the history of rear axle failures. The vehicle has not undergone the necessary preventative maintenance since the most recent valid test, and the rapid mileage accumulation suggests that basic upkeep has been skipped.
