Our Verdict
A sensible choice for those seeking a diesel compact SUV with a consistent MOT record. The vehicle shows a regular testing pattern and has avoided major structural or mechanical failures in its recent history.
When inspecting this specific 1.6L diesel model, check for any signs of recent maintenance following the MOT failures in 2025 and 2026. While the records show 'no defects recorded' at the time of passing, the fact that it failed just before passing in two consecutive years suggests minor items (such as bulbs or minor wear items) required attention.
Ask the seller for documentation regarding the specific reasons for the 2025 and 2026 failures, as the MOT database summary provided does not specify the exact component. For this Peugeot model, ensure the timing belt (cambelt) has been replaced according to the manufacturer's schedule, as this is a critical maintenance item for the 1560cc diesel engine.
The 1.6L diesel engine is designed for efficiency, making it suitable for higher annual mileages. You should expect competitive fuel economy, particularly on motorway journeys, which aligns with its usage pattern of over 8,000 miles per year.
Tax and insurance groups for a 2016 Peugeot 2008 are typically moderate, making it an accessible option for various driver profiles. Maintenance costs should be standard for a small SUV, though diesel-specific components like the DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) may require consideration if the vehicle is used primarily for short urban trips.
Given the aggregate data for this model, pay close attention to the headlamps, drive shaft joints, and tyre condition during your physical inspection. Although this specific vehicle's recent MOTs passed without recorded defects, these are the most common failure points for the Peugeot 2008 across the wider fleet.
Check the tyres for even wear and the brake components for any signs of excessive thinning. Additionally, since the vehicle has covered 65,856 miles, inspect the suspension components and drive shafts for any play or noise, as these are known areas of interest for this model type.
