2018 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · SM62 THO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive rather than proactive ownership pattern. While it passed its most recent test on 31 October 2025 at 74,018 miles, this followed a failure on the same day for multiple defects. The transition from a clean record in 2023 to mechanical-related failures in 2025 suggests that the previous owner only addressed faults once they reached legal failure thresholds rather than performing preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,250 miles per year. The record shows a steady progression from 53,805 miles in November 2023 to 61,236 miles in October 2024, and finally to 74,018 miles by October 2025. This consistent interval of roughly 7,000 to 12,000 miles between annual tests indicates the car is used regularly, which generally helps prevent components from seizing due to long periods periods. A buyer must specifically inspect the offside front drive shaft to ensure the split CV boot has been replaced and that no grease leakage has damaged the internal joint. The October 2025 failure highlighted thin front brake pads and pitted rear discs and pads; while these were rectified for the pass, the presence of pitting on the discs suggests they are nearing the end of their effective life. The earlier 2024 failure regarding washer fluid and headlamp aim indicates that basic electrical and fluid checks were previously overlooked until the MOT tester flagged them.
