Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and a thorough mech
Pay close attention to the vehicle's suspension and steering components; the 2026 advisory for the offside front drag link end suggests imminent maintenance is required. You should also verify that the CV boot and tyre cut identified during the 2025 failure were replaced with high-quality parts rather than temporary fixes.
Negotiate based on the recurring nature of the exhaust mounting issues, which appeared in both 2024 and 2025 records. Ensure the service history is complete, specifically looking for evidence of oil changes and timing belt checks, which are critical for the 1.2L PureTech engine's longevity.
The 1200cc petrol engine is designed for a balance of efficiency and urban drivability, typically falling into a moderate insurance group for this class of SUV. Annual costs will be influenced by the current UK fuel prices and the standard road tax bracket for 2018 petrol vehicles.
Maintenance costs for this specific vehicle may be higher than average given the history of frequent tyre wear and exhaust issues. Budget for regular alignment checks to prevent the 'scrubbing' seen in the 2024 MOT record, alongside standard servicing requirements.
Prioritise an inspection of the offside front drag link end ball joint to assess the 'slight play' noted in the March 2026 MOT. Additionally, examine the exhaust system's rear tailpipe and back box mounts, as these have been flagged as defective across multiple years (2024 and 2025).
Check all four tyres for uneven wear or scrubbing on the edges, as the 2024 record indicated multiple tyres were worn close to the legal limit with scrubbed edges. Finally, inspect the brake discs and pads, as these were highlighted as wearing thin or being pitted in 2023 and 2024.
This 2018 white Peugeot 3008 petrol has covered 66,409 miles, which aligns closely with the model average. The MOT history shows one failure in March 2025 and several years of advisories concerning brake wear, tyre scrubbing, and defective exhaust mountings. The most recent test in March 2026 flagged a developing issue with a front drag link end ball joint.
The Peugeot 3008 has an average MOT pass rate of 79.9%, with tyres and anti-roll bars being common failure points across the model range.
