The picture
Across 764 MOT tests, the 3008 Gt S/S Phev 4x4 Auto returns 86.7% first-time pass — comfortably ahead of the UK fleet average. The single most-logged Major fail is a tyre with the cords showing. A seriously damaged tyre and tyre tread under the limit round out the top three. Average tested mileage sits at 23,327, which is the lens to read those failure rankings through. If you own one and the next test is close, the ranked list below is a sensible pre-test checklist.

Year-band analysis
First-time MOT pass rate split by registration band. Pass rates barely move across bands here, so the year you buy Peugeot 3008 GT S/s Phev 4x4 Auto makes little measurable difference to MOT outcomes.
Best band to buy
89.0%
2021+ registration
the 2021-on band climbs to 89.0% — a 0.2-point improvement. Failures here are mostly wear items: has ply or cords exposed, has a cut in excess of the… — the structural issues that drag down older examples don't appear in the top-10 for this band. Post-2020 examples are early in their MOT life and generally show the cleanest records.
Band to be cautious about
88.7%
2018–2020 registration
On the 2018–2020 band, the data shows a 88.7% pass rate against a fleet average of 89.0% on the newer band. The main culprits logged at test: has ply or cords exposed, pin or bush excessively worn, and tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm. Average mileage on test for this band is 31,258 miles — high-mileage wear items are a recurring theme.
Best band to buy: 2021+ (89.0% first-time pass). Worst band to avoid: 2018-2020 (88.7% pass). That's a 0.2-point spread across 1,261 older tests and 579 newer ones — year of build makes a material difference on this model.
