2010 Peugeot 5008 1.6L Diesel · NG10 AEA

This vehicle appears to be in a stable mechanical condition based on the available MOT data. The most recent test on 15 August 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, suggesting the car remains roadworthy. A consistent pattern of clean passes without advisories over the last three years indicates a level of maintenance that has kept the vehicle compliant with DVSA standards. The mileage is typical for a 16 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 10,000 miles per year. The records show a steady accumulation of distance, rising from 141,097 miles in August 2023 to 160,126 miles by August 2025. This linear usage suggests the car has been driven regularly rather than left to stand, which generally helps prevent seals from perishing and braking systems from seizing. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer must remember that these tests do not cover every mechanical component. At 160,126 miles, the vehicle is at a high-wear stage for major drivetrain and suspension elements. You should personally verify the condition of the timing belt and water pump, as these are critical failure points for this engine if the service interval has been missed. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue or cracking, as these often wear out at this mileage even if they pass a basic MOT shake test. Check for any signs of corrosion on the chassis and sills, and verify that the gearbox shifts smoothly. The absence of recorded defects is positive, but a physical check of the oil for sludge and the coolant for contamination is necessary to confirm the engine's long-term health.
