AI verdict CAUTION 66/100

AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2008 Peugeot has 15 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 23,071 miles. While mileage is consistent, the pattern of issues suggests potential underlying neglect or structural weaknesses.

The mileage trajectory shows consistent annual usage, averaging 7,760 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but a significant 10-year gap (2010-2018) in recorded MOT tests.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension failures and advisories across multiple tests (e.g., 2013-04-10, 2019-10-2019).
  • Recurring emissions failures and advisories (e.g., 2019-10-2019, 2020-11-2020).
  • Recurring registration plate lamp failures (e.g., 2013-04-10, 2020-11-2020).
  • Dangerous tyre defects (exposed ply/cords) on 2013-04-10 and 2013-04-10 retests.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2018): 4-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 5 historical failures
