2011 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · LL11 KXZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive repairs rather than proactive preventative care. While the most recent test in July 2025 at 110,048 miles passed without major failures, the preceding years show a history of significant mechanical degradation. The trend is currently stable in terms of immediate safety-critical failures, but the recurring nature of suspension and braking issues suggests that components are only addressed once they reach a point of failure. At 110,048 miles over 15 years, the Peugeot has covered a low average of approximately 7,300 miles per year, which is consistent with typical UK usage for its age. The data shows consistent annual mileage, with roughly 13,700 miles covered between July 2023 and July 2024, and another 11,800 miles between July 2024 and July 2025. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not sat for long periods, though the low mileage may mask accelerated aging of rubber components and suspension hardware. A buyer must inspect the front front suspension assembly closely, as the record shows multiple failures related to ball joints, suspension arm bushes, and anti-roll bar linkages between 2023 and 2024. The 2024 failure specifically highlighted a split drive shaft CV boot, which can lead to premature drives joint failure if not replaced immediately. The presence of stiff steering noted in 2024 also indicates potential issues with the steering rack or top mounts that require a thorough physical check during a test drive. The braking system also warrants attention due to records of pitted and scored discs and thin pads across multiple tests, along with a parking brake that failed to meet efficiency requirements in 2024. Furthermore, the repeated advisories for tyres worn to the legal limit and on edges in both 2024 and 2025 suggest poor wheel alignment or worn suspension bushes, which will continue to cause uneven wear and mechanical stress on the front-end components.
