2022 Peugeot 508 Active Prem Bhdi S/S A 1.5L Diesel · SL72 TYG

The most recent MOT recorded for the 2022 Peugeot 508 Active Prem BHDI was a pass on 16 September 2025, with no defects or advisories noted. Although a duplicate entry shows a failure on the same date, the absence of any recorded fault means the vehicle was cleared as roadworthy at that test. With only a single year of MOT data available, the trend appears stable; there are no indications of deteriorating condition or recurring issues up to the latest inspection. At 67,631 miles recorded in September 2025 the car averages roughly 16,900 miles per annum over its four‑year life, which is considerably above the UK average of around 10‑12,000 miles per year for a family saloon. This level of utilisation suggests accelerated wear on consumables such as tyres, brake discs and pads, suspension components and engine oil. There is no evidence of prolonged storage periods, so the wear is likely to be mileage‑driven rather than age‑related, meaning that any parts approaching their service intervals should be examined closely. For a prospective buyer the primary focus should be on mileage‑dependent items. Inspect the tyre tread depth on all four wheels, looking for uneven wear patterns that could indicate mis‑alignment, worn camber bushes or damaged suspension joints; also check the sidewalls for cracking or hardening, a sign of perishing rubber. Examine the brake discs for scoring, rust through the vent holes, and measure the remaining thickness against the manufacturer’s minimum; pads should be assessed for even wear and any glazing. On the road test listen for clunks or squeaks when negotiating bumps, which may reveal worn coil springs, deteriorated anti‑roll bar links or loose suspension bushings, and feel for any pull or vibration that could point to tyre imbalance or steering rack play. Given the vehicle’s age of four years, time‑based maintenance should also be verified. Confirm that the 12‑volt battery has been tested recently and that the terminals are clean, as high‑mileage cars often sit idle between journeys. Request evidence that the engine oil, filter and coolant have been changed in line with the service schedule, and that the diesel particulate filter regeneration has been completed without fault codes. Finally, ensure the service book shows regular oil changes, timing belt or chain inspection (if applicable), and that any recall work for the 508 range has been carried out, as these factors will greatly influence long‑term reliability beyond the current MOT status.
