2021 Peugeot 2008 GT Line Puretech S/S 1.2L Petrol · SD21 FFB

The vehicle remains currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward addressing consumable-related wear. The most recent test in October 2025 at 46,095 miles passed without failure but introduced advisories for both rear tyres being near the legal limit and showing uneven wear. This follows a progression from the October 2024 test where mechanical components were flagged, suggesting the vehicle is now entering a phase requiring more frequent preventative attention. At 46,095 miles over five years, the Peugeot averages approximately 9,200 miles per annum, which aligns with typical UK usage patterns for a modern SUV. The record shows a consistent usage pattern, with 8,141 miles covered between March 2024 and October 2024, and another 7,884 miles in the year leading up to the most recent MOT. This mileage regularity suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to extreme stress or long periods of stagnation that might cause component degradation. A buyer should pay close attention to the braking system during a physical inspection. The October 2024 test at 38,211 miles identified both nearside and offside front inner brake discs as pitted and scored. While these did not cause a failure, pitting indicates surface corrosion often caused by moisture or infrequent use, combined with worn brake pads. Additionally, the steering column top bearing noted in late 2024 should be tested during a road drive to ensure no knocking or excessive play has developed, as this component affects steering precision. The uneven wear noted on the rear tyres in the 2025 test indicates a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. An inspector should verify the rear suspension geometry and check for any signs of premature tyre de-lam. Given that no structural corrosion or major mechanical failures appear in the history, the primary concerns remain limited to standard wear and tear items that are typical for a vehicle of this age and mileage.
