2014 Peugeot 2008 1.6L Diesel · WV02 ADE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the most recent MOT history indicates a slight decline in proactive maintenance. While the car passed its test in June 2025 at 61,666 miles, it had failed just three miles prior due to a nearside front tyre being below the legal limit and front brake pads reaching their wear limit. The fact that these issues were addressed immediately to secure a pass suggests the vehicle is functional, but the appearance of thin pads indicates the owner waits for components to approach failure rather than replacing them during service intervals. The mileage profile is consistent with a low-use vehicle, averaging approximately 5,100 miles per year over its twelve-year life. The data shows steady progression between 2022 and 2025, with the mileage climbing from 40,812 to 61,666 miles. This low annual mileage generally means less mechanical strain on the drivetrain and engine compared to high-mileage counterparts. However, low-mileage can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and corrosion of brake discs if the car has sat stationary for long periods between these tests. A buyer should specifically inspect the front braking system in person, as the 2025 failure confirms the pads were nearing the end of their life. Given the age of the Peugeot and the low mileage, a thorough check of the suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls is essential, as these can perish over time regardless of distance driven. Since no structural corrosion or major mechanical defects were noted in the previous three clean tests, the chassis appears stable, but a physical inspection of the brake discs for pitting or scoring is necessary to ensure the thin pads did not damage the rotors.
