Our Verdict
A solid purchase option for those seeking a compact crossover with a clean recent MOT history. The vehicle's recent inspection record shows no defects, suggesting it is currently in a stable state for its age.
When viewing this specific 1.2L petrol model, check the service history to ensure oil changes have been performed regularly, as small-capacity turbocharged engines can be sensitive to maintenance intervals. While the MOT history for ML68NWG is relatively clean, you should still inspect the condition of the tyres and brake pads, as these are common areas for wear in urban driving scenarios.
Negotiate based on the mileage; at 62,320 miles, it has been driven more than the model average of 7,230 miles per year. Ensure you verify the service intervals, particularly for any manufacturer-recommended cambelt or timing chain inspections that may be due around this mileage mark.
The 1199cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, typically placing this vehicle in a moderate insurance group and a relatively low tax band. Fuel economy should be reasonable for a small SUV, though actual figures will depend on your driving style and load.
Annual running costs are estimated to be moderate. Maintenance costs for Peugeot models are generally predictable, but you should budget for consumables like tyres and brakes, which are noted as common failure points across the wider Peugeot 2008 model aggregate.
Given the aggregate data for this model, pay close attention to the headlamps and drive shaft joints, as these are frequent causes for MOT failures in the Peugeot 2008 range. Although this specific vehicle has not recorded these failures recently, they remain common weak points to check during a physical inspection.
Additionally, inspect the tyre tread and sidewall condition. Since tyres are a top failure reason for this model across nearly 100,000 analysed vehicles, ensuring they are of a reputable brand and have sufficient depth is a vital step in assessing the current upkeep of this black 2008.
This 2018 Peugeot 2008, finished in black with a 1.2L petrol engine, has covered 62,320 miles since its first registration in September 2018. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passing, with the most recent test in August 2025 recording no defects. While it experienced one failure in August 2023 at 43,672 miles, the subsequent two years of testing have been clear of recorded issues.
Across 98,334 analysed vehicles, the Peugeot 2008 shows an average MOT pass rate of 80.3%, with headlamps and drive shaft joints being frequent points of failure.
