2019 Peugeot 5008 1.5L Diesel · VE68 ADU

The 2019 Peugeot 5008 demonstrates stable roadworthiness based on its most recent MOT on 2026-01-16, which passed with minimal issues. The tester noted a slightly deteriorated front registration plate, but this posed no significant safety risk. No critical defects were recorded, and the vehicle’s mechanical systems appear to have maintained consistency since the 2024-12-28 test, which also passed without defects. While earlier records reveal minor concerns—such as thin rear brake pads in 2023 and oil misting on rear shocks in 2024—these were addressed or remained non-critical, indicating no worsening trend in core systems. The vehicle’s mileage of 83,325 miles over seven years aligns with average annual usage, averaging ~11,904 miles per year. MOT intervals show a consistent annual pattern, with the exception of a 14-month gap between 2023-01-21 and 2024-01-16, which may reflect irregular maintenance. Mileage jumps from 42,987 to 53,607 miles (2023–2024) and 53,607 to 66,309 miles (2024–2024) suggest steady usage without abrupt spikes. No evidence of excessive wear on consumables like tyres or wiper blades is present, though two instances of slightly defective wiper blades in 2022 and 2024 imply basic upkeep was not prioritized. A buyer should inspect the suspension system, particularly the rear shocks, which showed oil misting in 2024, and the brake components, as rear pads were flagged in 2023 and front discs were pitted in 2022. The recurring child seat-related inspection limitations suggest frequent use of safety restraints, which may correlate with wear on seat belts or structural integrity of anchor points. Additionally, the spare tyre’s low air pressure in 2024 highlights potential neglect of auxiliary systems. While no structural corrosion or major mechanical failures are documented, a physical inspection should confirm the condition of brake discs, suspension bushes, and exhaust emissions compliance.
