Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2022 Peugeot 3008?

Yes. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. A full MOT history analysis will highlight patterns that a single test result won't reveal.

Check brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that is expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.

The 2022 Peugeot 3008 is a genuinely reliable proposition, with a 94.9% first-time MOT pass rate that sits well above the UK average of 80%—both petrol and diesel versions perform strongly, though petrol edges ahead at 96.3% versus 94.7%. Dangerous defects are rare, affecting just 4.5% of vehicles, which is reassuringly low for a buyer's checklist.

At under 30,000 miles on average, these are still relatively young cars, and the minimal failure rate of 0.12 per vehicle reflects that youth and build quality. The 0.9 advisories per car suggest minor wear items are starting to emerge, so when you're viewing one, check the history for routine suspension and fluid work—but overall, this is a model that doesn't demand anxiety ownership.

The 2022 Peugeot 3008 passes its MOT first time more often than most UK vehicles (94.9% vs ~80% average) — and when it does fail, it's usually something minor and cheap to fix.
