2016 Peugeot 108 Allure 1.2L Other · G15 EVA

The 2016 Peugeot 108 Allure has demonstrated consistent roadworthiness across all five MOT tests, with no defects or advisories recorded since its last inspection on December 10, 2025. This record suggests a stable maintenance pattern, though the absence of any warnings—even for minor consumables—implies either meticulous upkeep or a vehicle that has thus far resisted predictable wear. The most recent test, conducted just seven months ago at 18,553 miles, confirms no issues with critical systems such as suspension integrity, brake functionality, or emissions compliance. However, the lack of advisories does not preclude the need for a thorough independent inspection, particularly given the vehicle’s age and the unusually low mileage accumulation. The recorded mileage of 18,553 miles over nearly a decade—approximately 1,855 miles per year—is significantly lower than the average for a vehicle of this age, which typically exceeds 8,000–10,000 miles annually. The gaps between tests are irregular but not extreme: the longest interval, between May 2022 (13,995 miles) and August 2023 (15,594 miles), spans 15 months, while the shortest, between November 2024 (17,418 miles) and December 2025 (18,553 miles), covers just over a year. Such low mileage could indicate periods of inactivity, which may have allowed for slower degradation of components like suspension bushes or coil springs, but it also raises questions about whether the vehicle was stored under optimal conditions to prevent corrosion or fluid degradation. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an inspection of high-wear areas that often go unnoticed without a detailed examination. Focus on the suspension system—particularly the condition of rear coil springs and bushes, as these are prone to cracking or deterioration even with low mileage—alongside the brake calipers and discs for signs of uneven wear or binding. The front and rear wheel bearings should also be checked for play or excessive noise, as these are not routinely tested in MOTs but can develop issues over time. Corrosion, particularly around the wheel arches, sills, and subframe, warrants scrutiny, especially if the vehicle has spent extended periods off the road. Finally, verify the integrity of the exhaust system for leaks or rust-through, as emissions compliance—while not flagged here—can degrade silently. The absence of advisories in the MOT record does not guarantee these components are flawless, but it does indicate they have not yet failed at the level required for a fail.
