2018 Peugeot 5008 1.6L Diesel · LR18 FGA

The 2018 Peugeot 5008 presents a highly stable maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass at 95,482 miles on 21 January 2025. The vehicle passed its most recent test without any recorded defects, indicating sound mechanical and structural integrity at the current mileage. A failed test occurred just four days prior at 95,481 miles, though no defects were recorded, suggesting an aborted test or a minor procedural issue rather than a mechanical failure. The maintenance trajectory remains consistently positive, with no recurring faults or advisories appearing across the recorded history. Accumulating 95,482 miles over eight years results in an average annual mileage of roughly 11,935 miles, which sits squarely within typical usage parameters. The mileage progression reveals steady, consistent use rather than prolonged standing or excessive short-hop driving. Between the April 2024 test at 81,896 miles and the January 2025 test at 95,482 miles, the vehicle covered 13,586 miles in approximately nine months. Earlier intervals show similar utilization, with 16,220 miles covered between April 2022 and March 2023, and 21,025 miles covered between March 2023 and April 2024. Given the absence of recurring advisories or fault codes in the DVSA record, a buyer should focus on standard wear-and-tear assessments typical of a high-mileage family SUV. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration, as 95,000 miles will have subjected the dampers to significant cyclic loading. Check the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or binding, even though the braking tests passed. Examine the exhaust system for corrosion and verify the structural integrity of the underbody and sills, as the clean MOT record only reflects the condition at the exact moment of testing. Tyre condition and tread depth also warrant physical scrutiny, as consumable wear can accelerate rapidly during the recent high-utilization phase.
