2015 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · LT15 EFZ

The 2015 Peugeot 3008 holds a valid MOT certificate dated 28 October 2025, passing at 101,204 miles with zero defects recorded. The maintenance trend over the past two years shows a clear improvement. In August 2025, the tester flagged worn front suspension arm pins or bushes on both sides and an offside front tyre worn to the legal limit. One day before the October 2025 pass, the same front suspension bushes appeared again, though this time the tyre defect had been addressed and the only new item was an inoperative offside rear registration plate lamp. That lamp was rectified before the successful retest. The suspension advisories did not worsen to the point of failure, and no new mechanical or structural defects have emerged since. This pattern suggests the owner addressed immediate failure points promptly, but chose to monitor rather than replace the worn suspension bushes. The mileage progression is broadly consistent with typical use for an eleven-year-old vehicle. Between the August 2024 pass at 90,510 miles and the August 2025 test at 100,664 miles, the car covered 10,154 miles in twelve months, which aligns with the stated annual average of roughly 9,200 miles. The final 540 miles added between the failed and passed tests in October 2025 simply reflects the short distance driven to and from the retest appointment. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer record that would indicate long periods of disuse or clocking concerns. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension components. Both nearside and offside lower suspension arm pins or bushes have been flagged as worn in consecutive August and October 2025 tests. While the wear has not yet resulted in excessive movement severe enough to fail the MOT, degraded bushes will eventually cause imprecise steering, uneven tyre wear, and increased stress on ball joints and dampers. A thorough check of the front wishbone bushes, drop links, and anti-roll bar links for play or perishing is advisable. The offside front tyre has also worn to the legal limit on two separate occasions, indicating possible alignment issues or a habitual tendency toward underinflation. A four-wheel alignment check and close examination of the inner and outer tread edges on both front tyres would help confirm whether the tracking or inflation routine needs attention. Beyond these items, the clean October 2025 pass with no outstanding defects provides reasonable confidence that the braking system, exhaust emissions, lighting, and structural integrity remain in acceptable condition at present.
