PEUGEOT 2082016 · 1.2L PETROL

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status with a clear trend of improving maintenance. The most recent inspection conducted in January 2026 at 52,514 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects. This follows two consecutive years of clean records since early 2024, indicating that the current owner has addressed earlier mechanical concerns and is currently maintaining the car to a high technical standard. The mileage profile is low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,250 miles per annum. Between February 2025 and January 2026, the car covered 5,255 miles, showing a consistent and low-usage pattern. This low mileage generally suggests less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though the infrequent use can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or brake components if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods between tests. A review of the failure in January 2023 at 35,442 miles highlights specific areas where the vehicle required attention. The tester flagged a worn front suspension arm pin or bush, a defective front exhaust mounting, and a nearside rear tyre with exposed cords. While these were rectified to pass the subsequent test, a buyer should still inspect the front suspension bushings for any signs of cracking or tearing and ensure the exhaust system remains secure and free of excessive corrosion. Given the low mileage, the buyer should also check for surface rust on the brake discs, which is common on vehicles that are not driven frequently.
