2014 Peugeot 108 1.0L Petrol · GJ64 AEC

This Peugeot 108 presents a clean MOT history over the past three years, with the most recent test in September 2025 at 59,660 miles showing no defects—a consistent pattern of passing since at least 2023. The only anomaly is a duplicate entry for October 2022, where the vehicle was tested twice on the same mileage (43,451 miles) and failed once without recorded defects, which may indicate a clerical error or administrative oversight rather than a mechanical issue. No advisories or major concerns appear in the available records, suggesting the vehicle has either been well-maintained or has simply avoided developing critical faults over its lifetime. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging just under 5,000 miles per year—a figure that implies either infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity. The gap between the 2022 and 2023 tests (roughly 4,153 miles over 12 months) and the steady but modest increases thereafter (e.g., 5,700 miles between 2023 and 2024) reinforce this trend. Such low mileage typically reduces wear on suspension components, brakes, and drivetrain, but it may also mean the vehicle has spent extended periods unused, potentially accelerating corrosion or fluid degradation in less frequently driven systems. Given the absence of defects or advisories in recent tests, a buyer should still verify key areas in person. Focus on the suspension—specifically the condition of coil springs, shock absorbers, and rubber bushes—since low-mileage vehicles can still develop stiffness or corrosion in these parts if stored in damp conditions. Check for binding or uneven wear on brake discs and pads, particularly the rear brakes, as the 2022 duplicate test might hint at past issues that were later resolved. Structural integrity is another priority: inspect the sills, wheel arches, and underbody for surface rust or corrosion, as these areas are prone to deterioration even with minimal driving. Finally, while the MOT record is reassuring, the lack of advisories does not preclude hidden wear. A pre-purchase inspection should include a fluid check (brake, coolant, and power steering) and a thorough examination of the exhaust system for leaks or corrosion, given the vehicle’s age and potential for prolonged storage. The absence of recorded faults is a positive indicator, but due diligence remains essential.
