2017 Peugeot 3008 2.0L Diesel · LD17 RXM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean pass in its most recent test in March 2026 at 61,487 miles. Despite this current success, the maintenance history shows a reactive approach to repairs where issues are addressed only upon failing an MOT. While the most recent inspection indicates no immediate mechanical or structural defects, the historical data suggests a pattern of neglecting basic consumable items until they reach legal limits or cause failure points. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. The record shows steady progression in use, moving from 30,340 miles in December 2020 to 61,487 miles by March 2026. There is no evidence of long periods of inactivity or sudden spikes in mileage that would typically stress the drivetrain components. However, the gap between the July 2024 and August 2025 tests shows the vehicle was used for low-intensity travel during those intervals. A buyer should pay close attention to the braking and suspension systems due to recurring issues flagged in the past. The December 2020 failure at 30,340 miles highlighted significant rear brake deficiencies, including inadequate effort, axle imbalance, and poor parking brake efficiency. While these were rectified, the recurring nature of tyre failures across multiple years—culminating in a total failure of all four tyres in August 2025—suggests the owner often overlooked routine maintenance. An in-person inspection of uneven tyre wear and checking the suspension bushes is necessary to ensure that the previous braking issues have not caused underlying alignment or mechanical wear.
