2017 Peugeot 2008 1.6L Diesel · SG67 YLM

The vehicle presents a stable mechanical history with no evidence of serious structural or drivetrain deterioration. The most recent test on 15 September 2025 at 49,193 miles resulted in a clean pass with no recorded defects, leaving the MOT valid until September 2026. Prior to this, a failure on the same day at 49,192 miles occurred solely due to an inoperative rear registration plate lamp, a minor electrical issue rectified immediately. The absence of persistent mechanical failures across the record indicates consistent core reliability. Usage remains exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,466 miles annually. The odometer progression from 29,766 miles in September 2022 to 49,193 miles by September 2025 confirms consistent but light operation rather than rapid accumulation or long periods of inactivity. This low mileage profile typically reduces wear on suspension components and drivetrain parts, though rubber seals and fluids may still degrade with age regardless of distance travelled. Historical records highlight a recurring issue with the rear exhaust system and registration plate lighting. Testers flagged a snapped rear exhaust hanger in September 2022 and noted a broken hanger again in September 2023, suggesting the repair was either delayed or the component failed subsequently. The registration plate lamp failure in 2025 mirrors a similar advisory noted in 2022. A prospective buyer should physically inspect the exhaust mounting for security and check the rear light clusters for bulb security or corroded electrical contacts to ensure these minor annoyances do not reoccur.
