Our Verdict
This Peugeot 2008 represents a solid prospect for buyers, supported by a remarkably clean recent MOT history. With consistent annual mileage and no recorded defects in the last four years, it is a well-documented example of the 2018 model.
When viewing this vehicle, focus on the 1.2L PureTech engine, which is known to be sensitive to oil quality; ensure the service history confirms the use of the correct specification oil to protect the timing belt. While the MOT history is clean, this does not replace a full mechanical inspection or a check for any outstanding recall work.
Negotiate based on the fact that while the MOT record is clear, the vehicle is approaching the age where wear-and-tear items like suspension bushes and brake components may require attention. Verify that the tyres are of a reputable brand and have sufficient tread depth, as these are critical for safety and were not flagged in recent tests.
The 1.2L petrol engine is generally economical for urban and mixed driving, though real-world fuel consumption will depend heavily on driving style. As a 2018 vehicle, it falls into standard VED bands, though you should verify the exact annual tax cost using the DVLA database as rates can fluctuate.
Insurance groups for the Peugeot 2008 are typically reasonable, making it an accessible option for most drivers. Budget for annual maintenance beyond just the MOT, including periodic servicing and the eventual replacement of consumables, to ensure the vehicle remains in a roadworthy state.
Although the MOT history is clean, inspect the bodywork for signs of parking damage, particularly around the bumpers, as the grey paint can sometimes mask minor scuffs. Check the interior for wear on the driver's seat bolster and ensure all electronic features, such as the infotainment system and air conditioning, are functioning as intended.
Under the bonnet, look for any signs of oil leaks or coolant staining. Since the MOT test does not cover the internal condition of the engine or the longevity of the timing belt, ask the seller specifically when the last service was performed and if there is any evidence of the timing belt being inspected or replaced.
Registered in July 2018, this grey 1.2L petrol Peugeot 2008 has covered 49,612 miles. The MOT history shows a clean record over the last four years, with a single administrative failure in March 2026 that was immediately rectified on the same day. It remains a practical choice for those seeking a compact SUV with a clear recent testing history.
There is currently no aggregate MOT data available for the Peugeot 2008 to provide a comparative reliability benchmark.
