2013 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · LJ13 YRU

The vehicle presents a stable and clean roadworthiness record, having passed its most recent MOT on 24 May 2025 at 61,798 miles without any recorded defects. While the test on 23 May 2025 resulted in a failure at 61,796 miles, the lack of recorded defects suggests a potential administrative error or a minor rectification performed immediately prior to the successful retest the following day. The absence of advisories across the last four years of testing indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard, with no recurring mechanical or structural issues identified by testers. This Peugeot 3008 has covered approximately 61,798 miles over its thirteen-year lifespan, averaging roughly 4,750 miles per year. This low-mileage profile is consistent across the documented history, with the vehicle accumulating fewer than 3,000 miles between the September 2022 test at 58,859 miles and the most recent inspection in May 2025. Such light usage patterns often suggest the vehicle has spent significant time in storage or has been used primarily for short, local journeys, which can sometimes lead to different wear patterns compared to high-mileage motorway vehicles. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components prone to degradation during periods of inactivity. Although the MOT history is clean, check the condition of the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-mileage vehicles frequently suffer from binding calipers or seized sliding pins due to infrequent use. Inspect the sidewalls of the tyres for age-related perishing or cracking, even if the tread depth remains legal. Finally, verify the service history for evidence of timing belt replacement, as the age of the vehicle is now the primary factor for component failure rather than the total mileage covered.
