Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and budget for imme
When viewing this vehicle, prioritize checking the immediate condition of all four tyres, as the 2025 MOT noted all four were worn close to the legal limit or worn on the edges. You should also ask for evidence of recent suspension work, given the advisories for both nearside and offside front suspension arm pins/bushes in the latest test.
Negotiate the sale price based on the cost of replacing the tyres and addressing the suspension bushes. Ensure you request a service history that covers the 1.6L diesel engine's requirements, particularly regarding timing belt intervals, which are critical for this engine type.
As a 1560cc diesel, this Peugeot 5008 is designed for efficient long-distance cruising. You can expect relatively competitive fuel economy, though actual figures will depend on load and driving style. Tax and insurance groups for this model are generally mid-range, making it a typical choice for family use.
Maintenance costs for this vehicle should account for the wear patterns seen in the MOT history, such as frequent brake pad and disc replacements. An estimated annual running cost, covering fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, is approximately £1,400-£1,700.
Focus your inspection on the suspension and braking systems. The 2025 MOT specifically flagged worn suspension arm pins or bushes on both the nearside and offside front, so listen for knocks or knocks when driving over uneven surfaces. Additionally, check the tread depth and evenness of all four tyres to see if the issues noted in the 2025 MOT have been rectified.
Review the braking components as well; the 2024 MOT recorded worn or pitted discs and thin pads on both the front and rear. Ensure that any recent brake work has been documented with receipts to confirm the parts were replaced rather than just adjusted.
This 2018 grey Peugeot 5008 diesel has covered 42,513 miles, which is below the model average for its age. The MOT history shows a progression from no defects in 2022/2023 to several advisories in 2024 and 2025, specifically concerning brakes, tyres, and suspension bushes. The vehicle has passed all tests to date, but the frequency of wear-and-tear advisories is increasing.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 78.2% MOT pass rate, with common issues including tyres, coil springs, and engine MIL inoperative lights.
