2013 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · MF63 ERY

This 2013 Peugeot 3008 has demonstrated a consistent roadworthiness trend over its most recent MOT cycle, with no defects or advisories recorded in any of the five tests conducted between March 2023 and March 2026. The vehicle passed all tests without fail, including the most recent examination on 2026-03-17, where it achieved a clean bill despite the unusual dual entry (one pass, one fail at identical mileage). This suggests the tester may have initially missed a minor non-compliance that was later corrected, but no recurring issues have been logged. The absence of advisories or repeated failures indicates the vehicle has likely undergone regular servicing, though this cannot be confirmed without service records. The recorded mileage of 59,368 miles over 13 years—approximately 4,567 miles annually—is unusually low for a vehicle of this age, suggesting either infrequent use or prolonged periods of storage. The incremental mileage between tests remains steady, with roughly 1,500 miles accumulated per year, which aligns with light-to-moderate usage. There are no gaps indicating neglect, nor are there spikes that would imply aggressive driving or deferred maintenance. However, low mileage does not preclude wear from age-related factors such as suspension degradation, brake pad replacement cycles, or potential corrosion in underbody components. Given the clean MOT history, the primary focus for an in-person inspection should centre on components that typically degrade predictably over 13 years, regardless of mileage. The suspension system—particularly the rear coil springs, bushes, and dampers—should be examined for uneven wear, excessive play, or corrosion, as these are common failure points in this model. Brake discs and calipers, especially the rear, warrant close scrutiny for uneven wear or binding, though the lack of advisories suggests they may still be serviceable. Underbody corrosion, particularly around the wheel arches, sills, and exhaust system, should be assessed, as prolonged standing can accelerate rust development. Finally, the battery and electrical connections, often overlooked in low-mileage vehicles, should be tested for corrosion or reduced capacity, as they degrade over time even with minimal use.
