2022 Peugeot 2008 GT EV Electric · SN08 BEX

A clean pass on the most recent DVSA examination dated 6 February 2026, with no advisories or defects recorded, defines a vehicle with a presently unblemished roadworthiness record. The only entry prior to that, dated 22 August 2025, was also a pass, carrying a single advisory concerning the inability to test the rear seatbelts due to a dog seat cover being fitted at the time of test. This advisory is purely procedural rather than mechanical, and the underlying belts themselves were not condemned; it is a common flag on vehicles used for transporting pets and resolves immediately upon removal of the cover. Across both recorded tests the only item noted anywhere on the docket is therefore this non-mechanical observation, giving the car a stable, untroubled MOT trajectory in the documented period. The odometer reads 21,225 miles on a four-year-old vehicle, which equates to roughly 5,300 miles annually. This is a notably low accumulation rate for a car of this age, particularly for a compact crossover of this type which typically covers greater distances. The testing history shows only two MOT entries despite the vehicle being first registerable for examination from late 2025, which is consistent with the mileage bracket but means the inspection history is short in absolute terms. Low annual mileage of this nature reduces wear on major drivetrain and braking components but can place specific demands on items that suffer from prolonged standing rather than active use, particularly the high-voltage battery conditioning cycles, suspension dampers, brake discs which can develop surface corrosion through infrequent use, and tyre sidewalls which can develop flat spotting or perishing if the car is left stationary for extended periods. Given that the test docket has flagged nothing beyond the seatbelt inspection restriction, a prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas that low-mileage examples typically present issues with regardless of MOT outcome. On a test drive, pay particular attention to the feel of the brake pedal; lightly used discs often display a judder or vibration under initial braking as the pads sweep off accumulated surface rust, and this should clear after a few applications. Listen for any clonking or knocking from the front suspension over speed humps and uneven surfaces, as dampers that have sat idle can sometimes produce a momentary noise before freeing up, and verify that the steering returns to centre cleanly without any pulling or vibration through the wheel. Inspect the tyres closely for any cracking in the sidewalls, uneven wear across the tread face suggesting the car has been left stood with weight on one spot for long periods, and check the manufacturing date codes on the sidewalls to confirm they are not aged rubber. For the specific seatbelt advisory, simply confirm that any dog guard, hammock, or cover is removed before the next test so the buckles and retractors can be physically inspected for latching and spooling correctly. Beyond that, the high-voltage system on this electric variant has no recorded MOT testable emissions components, but a buyer should still ask for evidence of the most recent manufacturer health check and battery state-of-health report, as these fall outside the DVSA scope. The underside should be examined for any signs of kerbing damage to the alloy wheels or scuffing to the plastic sill and bumper protectors, which is more common on low-mileage vehicles that have seen limited but perhaps careless urban use. Overall, the documented MOT record offers no mechanical concerns to deter a purchase, provided the items typical of low-mileage electric crossovers are verified independently during a physical inspection and test drive.
