How many years is a Peugeot 2008 likely to last?

Peugeot 2008s aged 10 are forecast to keep taking MOTs for at least 0.7 more years; the survival curve is observed only until age 11, so the true figure is likely higher.

If a Peugeot 2008 fails, does it fail again?

Peugeot 2008s that fail once are much more likely to fail again: 31.7% failed the next MOT after a fail, against 21.1% after a pass (test chains 2019–2024). The failure most likely to come back is ‘lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment’: 34.7% of those fails recurred at the next MOT.

What does a Peugeot 2008 cost to run in a fleet?

Of every 100 Peugeot 2008s tested at age 5, about 17 failed the MOT first time; at age 10, about 39. These are one-year rates for different cars tested in the same year, not a fleet followed over time; the steepest one-year step in this cross-section is between cars aged 5 and 6, 6.31 percentage points (2024).

Does the Peugeot 2008 fail inspections in other countries too?

In the Netherlands, 40.8% of Peugeot 2008s failed their periodic roadworthiness inspection, against 50.8% for all cars there (2024 by country, n = 32,965 inspections).

Both readings are shown: this comparison changes when usage or inspection rules differ.

Inspections abroad disagree: none point the same way as Britain, Norway, Finland and the Netherlands do not. Test rules, climate and how the vehicles are used differ, so both readings are shown.
