2012 Peugeot 508 Active SW HDI 2.0L Heavy oil · YB12 ACF

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2021-12-10 at 112,754 miles recorded a pass with no defects, but the absence of subsequent tests since then raises concerns. The 2021-12-10 failure entry is listed alongside the pass, though no defects are detailed, suggesting potential administrative errors or duplicate entries. Without updated records, it is unclear if the car has remained roadworthy or if maintenance has lapsed. The lack of recent data implies the vehicle may not have been inspected for over four years, increasing the risk of undetected issues. The mileage progression shows steady growth from 90,020 miles in 2019 to 112,754 by 2021, averaging roughly 8,000 miles annually—a typical rate for its age. However, the static mileage since 2021-12-10 suggests the vehicle may have been stationary for extended periods, risking component degradation such as brake rotor corrosion, suspension bush wear, or battery failure. The 2019 and 2021 MOTs both show no defects, indicating prior compliance, but the gap in testing leaves critical systems unverified. A physical inspection is essential to assess components likely affected by inactivity, including the exhaust system for rust, brake calipers for binding, and suspension joints for stiffness. The absence of corrosion reports or structural issues in the MOT history is reassuring, but the static mileage warrants scrutiny of fluid levels, tire condition, and electrical systems. Buyers should also verify service records to confirm if the vehicle has been regularly maintained despite the testing gap.
