2016 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · EK66 ABV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pass record over the last four years. The most recent test on 25 September 2025 at 41,952 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a failure just 33 miles earlier on the same day. Since the failure recorded no specific defects, it suggests a potential administrative error or a minor issue that was rectified immediately before the retest without indicating a systemic mechanical or structural failure. The mileage pattern is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,200 miles per year. Between September 2022 and September 2023, the car covered 5,466 miles, while the subsequent intervals saw only 2,650 and 2,686 miles respectively. This low usage typically indicates less wear on drivetrain components, engine internals, and suspension. However, long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components or corrosion on brake surfaces, which are not always captured in an MOT test. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components typically affected by low-mileage use. Check the brake discs for surface rust or pitting, as the vehicle may not have been driven enough to keep them clean. Inspect the suspension bushes and tyres for cracking or dry rot, which occurs due to age rather than distance traveled. Given the clean history and lack of structural advisories, the chassis integrity appears well-maintained, but a thorough check of the fluid levels and battery health is advisable to ensure the car has not sat for extended periods between uses.
