2014 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · SH14 CWN

This Peugeot 3008 presents a clean MOT history with no recorded defects across all five tests, including the most recent dual entries in June 2025 at 70,404 miles. The absence of advisories or failures beyond the two administrative re-tests suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard, with no signs of recurring mechanical or structural issues. The fact that both 2025 tests were passed on the same day—despite the initial failure—implies the tester may have flagged minor, easily rectifiable paperwork or administrative issues rather than substantive vehicle faults. Overall, the trend is stable, with no evidence of deteriorating components or neglect. The mileage accumulation of 70,404 miles over roughly 12 years (since 2014) indicates very light use, averaging just under 5,867 miles annually. This low mileage is unusual for a vehicle of this age and suggests either infrequent driving, extended periods of disuse, or potentially a secondary vehicle in a fleet. The most recent MOT in June 2025 shows just 3,602 miles added since the July 2024 test, reinforcing the pattern of minimal usage. Such low mileage typically reduces wear on consumables like tyres and brakes, but it may also mask hidden issues if the car has been stored for long periods without basic checks—such as fluid top-ups or battery maintenance. Given the spotless MOT record, a buyer should still conduct a thorough pre-purchase inspection, focusing on components less likely to be caught by routine MOT checks. Pay particular attention to the suspension—specifically the condition of coil springs, anti-roll bars, and bushings—since these can degrade even with low mileage if the vehicle has sat unsupported. Check for signs of corrosion in wheel arches, underseal, and around the sills, as prolonged exposure to moisture without movement can accelerate rust. While the brakes appear to have passed without issue, inspect for uneven wear or binding calipers, which might not always be picked up in a standard test. Finally, verify the battery health and fluid levels, as infrequent use can lead to sulphation or leaks that aren’t always visible during an MOT.
