2016 PEUGEOT 2081.6L Petrol

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 12 December 2025 at 78,817 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows a significant improvement following a period of neglect. While the car passed cleanly in late 2025, the previous year saw a decline in mechanical condition, culminating in a failure on 4 December 2024 due to multiple braking and suspension issues. The mileage is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 7,882 miles per year. Usage remained steady between 2021 and 2024, with the odometer climbing from 51,457 to 70,482 miles over three years. There are no unusual gaps in the testing history or sudden spikes in mileage that would suggest commercial use or prolonged periods of standing. A buyer should scrutinize the rear braking system and front suspension. The 4 December 2024 test flagged binding rear brakes, heavily corroded and delaminating brake discs, and worn pads. Although the 2025 pass suggests these were rectified, the presence of corrosion on the brake hose ferrules indicates a susceptibility to rust that warrants a physical check. The tester also identified cracked rear bushes on both front suspension arms at 70,482 miles. The record reveals a pattern of poor consumable management. The vehicle failed on rear tyre tread in December 2024 after the same tyres were flagged as worn in both December 2022 and December 2023. This suggests the previous owner ignored advisories for several years. While the most recent clean pass is positive, the history of deferred maintenance on tyres and brakes implies a reactive rather than proactive approach to vehicle care.
