Car statistics
How many Peugeot 5008s are still on the road in Great Britain, how many are declared off the road, how new registrations have changed and which fuels they use. Built from DVLA licensing records and 37,129 DVSA MOT tests.
There were 51,280 Peugeot 5008s licensed in Great Britain at the end of March 2026, and a further 1,764 declared off the road (SORN). That is the most on the road at any year end since 2009.
Numbers are still rising: the latest count is the highest in this series.

In 2025, 71.4% of Peugeot 5008 MOT tests were passed first time, against 72.8% for all cars. Cars of the same ages as the Peugeot 5008s tested pass 79.7% of the time, so the Peugeot 5008 does worse than average for its age, by 8.3 points. In 2024 its pass rate was 69.9%.
Comparing like with like: each bar pair covers cars of the same age, so an older average age does not count against a model.

Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment is the most common reason a Peugeot 5008 fails its MOT, appearing on 39.8% of failed tests. A failed test can have defects in more than one category, so shares add up to more than 100%. 9.7% of Peugeot 5008 tests found at least one dangerous defect, against 7.3% for all cars.

The single most common reason a Peugeot 5008 failed its MOT in 2025 was “Brake pads: less than 1.5 mm thick”, on 12.4% of 10,636 failed tests. 53.4% of tests ended with at least one advisory, a problem to watch that did not fail the test; the most common was “Tread depth: worn close to legal limit or worn on edge”. The same fault on any wheel or side counts once.

The Vehicle Certification Agency’s new car data lists the Peugeot 5008 from 2010, and still lists it. On the WLTP test (listings 2019 to 2026), official combined fuel economy for its petrol, diesel and petrol hybrid versions ranges from 35.2 to 60.8 mpg, with CO2 of 120 to 181 g/km; electric versions have an official range of 258 to 339 miles; plug-in hybrid versions are rated at 83.1 to 356.2 mpg (weighted). On the older NEDC test (listings 2010 to 2018), official combined fuel economy for its petrol and diesel versions ranges from 38.1 to 70.6 mpg, with CO2 of 105 to 181 g/km.

DVSA lists 43 safety recalls for the Peugeot 5008 since 1992, the first in 2010. The most recent was launched on 3 July 2026.
All 43 Peugeot 5008 recalls, with defects, remedies and build dates
A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Peugeot 5008. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a dealer. How we match recalls to models.
