2015 Peugeot 5008 1.6L Diesel · SH15 YVP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than preventative approach to repairs. The most recent test in June 2025 at 105,024 miles revealed significant pitting and scoring across all four brake discs. While these advisories did not result in a failure, they suggest a period of corrosion or a lack of recent cleaning on the braking system. The overall trend remains inconsistent, as faults appear to be addressed only after they trigger a failure or are flagged during inspection. At 105,024 miles over 11 years, the Peugeot has averaged approximately 9,500 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage for a family vehicle of this age. The mileage progression shows consistent use, with roughly 11,700 miles covered between July 2023 and July 2024, and another 8,700 miles in the year leading up to the 2025 test. This regularity suggests the car is used regularly, which explains the wear on rubber components and the surface degradation of the brake hardware seen in the latest records. A buyer must closely inspect the offside front drive shaft, as a split CV boot was a recorded reason for failure in 2024. If this was not replaced with quality, check for grease leakage and imminent failure of the joint. The recurring failure of the tyre pressure monitoring system, which appeared in both 2023 and 2024, indicates a persistent electronic or sensor fault that may not have been fully resolved. Additionally, the pitting on all brake discs necessitates a physical check of the thickness and condition of the pads to ensure they are not nearing their minimum safety limit.
