2018 Peugeot 2008 1.2L Petrol · LS68 VXT

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status having passed its most recent MOT on April 27 2026 at 40,719 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend is currently improving following a period of noted mechanical wear in late 2025. The transition from multiple advisories to a defect-free pass suggests that the previous owner has addressed the identified suspension and braking issues highlighted during the prior year's inspection. At eight years old, the recorded mileage of 40,719 miles is low, averaging approximately 5,100 miles per annum. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with a gap of 8,677 miles between October 2024 and October 2025, and a 1,998-mile interval between October 2025 and April 2026. This low mileage typically reduces strain on the drivetrain and engine, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components and brake hardware if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A physical inspection should focus specifically on the areas flagged during the October 2025 test. The tester identified worn bushes on both the nearside and offside front lower suspension arms, alongside a damaged central rear lower engine mounting. While these did not result in a failure, the buyer should verify that no vibrations persist under braking or steering noises that indicate further play. Additionally, the report of fluctuating front service brakes in 2025 indicates potential thin or warped discs; these should be checked for surface condition and thickness to ensure the components were replaced as suggested.
