2022 Peugeot 2008 GT EV Electricity · OV22 XCB

The most recent MOT test conducted on 17 March 2026 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. When reviewing the maintenance trend, the vehicle shows a stable profile. An advisory was noted during the 2025 inspection regarding the nearside rear tyre being worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge, but the subsequent clean pass in 2026 suggests this issue was rectified. This indicates that the previous owner has been attentive to consumables, preventing a minor advisory from escalating into a failure. With 24,958 miles recorded over approximately four years, the vehicle has covered an average of roughly 6,240 miles per year. This represents a lower-than-average usage pattern, which is generally beneficial for the longevity of mechanical components such as the suspension bushes, coil springs, and drivetrain. However, because the mileage is relatively low, it is important to distinguish between wear caused by distance and degradation caused by time. Low-use vehicles can sometimes experience different types of wear, such as fluid stagnation or rubber perishing, which are not always captured by mileage-based service schedules. During your physical inspection, you should pay close attention to the tyres. While the previous advisory was cleared, inspect all tyres for uneven wear, particularly on the edges, which could signal alignment issues or worn suspension components. Check the sidewalls for any signs of cracking or perishing, a common occurrence in vehicles that are driven infrequently. You should also inspect the brake discs for excessive surface corrosion and ensure the calipers are not binding, as electric vehicles can suffer from brake oxidation if the braking system is not regularly exercised. Finally, verify the service history to confirm that time-based maintenance has been carried out, regardless of the low mileage. This includes checking the condition of the 12V auxiliary battery and ensuring that coolant and other essential fluids have been inspected according to the manufacturer's calendar-based intervals. On your test drive, listen for any suspension clunks or knocks over uneven surfaces and ensure the steering is centered and stable. This will help confirm that the low-mileage usage has not resulted in any component seizing or premature degradation due to standing time.
