2023 Peugeot 5008 GT Puretech S/S Auto 1.6L Petrol · WG72 MFV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, following a clean MOT pass on 10 July 2026 at 42,783 miles. The maintenance trend shows marked improvement as the multiple mechanical defects identified in the previous testing have been addressed. The transition from a failing state in February 2026 to a perfect score in July suggests the owner took proactive action to rectify faults rather than allowing advisories to persist. At 42,783 miles over three years, this Peugeot has averaged approximately 14,200 miles per year, which exceeds the UK national average for a family vehicle. The interval between the February 2026 test and the July 2026 test shows the car covered 3,711 miles in just five months. This high rate of use accelerates the wear on consumables and suspension components, necessitating frequent monitoring to ensure the vehicle remains in its current condition. A buyer must verify that the nearside front drive shaft joint and the deteriorated outer CV boot were actually replaced with new components rather than merely lubricated, as a torn boot can lead to rapid grease loss and eventual joint failure. The inspection should also target the offside front suspension arm and the rear mounting bush for signs of premature play or tearing, given these were flagged for wear only months ago. Because the front brake pads were borderline thin at 39,072 miles, checking the remaining life on the discs and pads is essential to ensure a comprehensive service was performed during the recent repairs.
