Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2022 Peugeot 5008 GT Prem P Tech S/s Auto?

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.

What corrosion should I look for when inspecting a 2022 Peugeot 5008 GT Prem P Tech S/s Auto?

How are tyres and brakes typically on a 2022 Peugeot 5008 GT Prem P Tech S/s Auto?

Tyres and brakes are the most common advisory items on vehicles of this age. Budget for replacement if they are near the limit, and factor this into your offer price.

This 2022 Peugeot 5008 is performing well above the UK average, with an 89.8% first-time MOT pass rate compared to 80% nationally—a solid 10-point margin that suggests good build quality and owner maintenance. The dangerous defect rate of 10% is reassuringly low, placing it well below the concern threshold.

At just over 24,000 miles median, these cars are still relatively young with minimal wear, and the 0.2 average failures per vehicle confirms most are passing without significant issues. The 1.5 advisories per car suggest routine wear items rather than structural problems, so focus your pre-purchase inspection on service history and whether any of the common advisories (likely suspension or minor electrics on Peugeots) have been addressed rather than deferred.

The 2022 Peugeot 5008 GT Prem P Tech S/s Auto passes its MOT first time more often than most UK vehicles (91.2% vs ~80% average) — and when it does fail, it's usually something minor and cheap to fix.

⚠️ About 1 in 12 of these vehicles have had a dangerous MOT failure at some point — usually tyres or brakes, and often a one-off issue rather than a persistent problem. The group stats won't tell you which one you're looking at.

For context

✅ Good baseline reliability. A 91.2% first-time pass rate puts this well above the UK average — it's a well-sorted vehicle in this age bracket.

🔧 Expect consumable spend. An average of 1.5 advisories per vehicle tells you wear items (tyres, brakes) get flagged regularly. Budget for them — they're not surprises.

🔍 The dangerous defect figure is real. Most are one-off tyre failures or brake issues — not structural problems. But it's exactly why checking the individual vehicle's history is essential, not optional.

These stats describe 648 vehicles as a group. The specific vehicle you're looking at could be the one good example or the one outlier. Run its registration to find out.
