2010 Peugeot 5008 1.6L Diesel · NJ10 PLZ

The 2026‑04‑24 MOT at 108,614 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the Peugeot 5008 is presently roadworthy. The series of tests since 2022 shows that earlier faults – such as the CV joint boot deterioration, suspension arm wear and parking brake failures – have been corrected, indicating a stable maintenance trend rather than a worsening condition. The vehicle’s mileage of roughly 6,800 miles per year aligns with its 16‑year age, but the record reveals uneven accumulation: after the 2022‑11‑10 test at 81,922 miles the next reading was 86,033 miles in November 2023, a gain of only 4,111 miles, while the interval from 2024‑11‑14 (93,331 miles) to the latest 2026‑04‑24 (108,614 miles) added 15,283 miles in just over a year and a half, suggesting recent increased usage. No major gaps in the documentation are evident beyond this recent acceleration. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension components that repeatedly appeared – the near‑side front suspension arm ball joint, the off‑side front anti‑roll bar linkage and the pin or bush wear noted in 2021 and 2020 – confirming that replacement or refurbishment has been completed. Inspection of the brake system is essential, given the recurring wear and pitting of the front discs and the history of parking brake efficiency failures; the condition of the discs, pads and the parking brake mechanism must be verified. Inspection of the CV joint boots, tyre tread and the functionality of all lamps and the parking brake should be checked in person. The recent clean MOT indicates that the vehicle meets current roadworthiness standards, but the buyer must verify that the previously flagged suspension and brake repairs are sound and that tyre wear and parking brake operation are within limits before finalising the purchase.
