Our Verdict
This 2013 Peugeot 208 presents with exceptionally low mileage for its age, making it an attractive proposition for town driving. However, buyers should carefully review its history of recurring suspension boot wear and brake advisories before committing.
When viewing this 2013 Peugeot 208, inspect the physical paperwork to see if the recurring offside front CV boot issue has been permanently resolved with a higher-quality replacement part, as it failed MOT tests in 2018, 2019, and 2020 for the exact same component. Check the front brake discs and pads closely, as they were repeatedly flagged as worn or pitted across multiple annual tests. Use these past recurring advisories as a negotiating point on the price.
Equipped with a modest 1200cc petrol engine, this Peugeot 208 sits in a low insurance group and offers excellent fuel economy for city and suburban commutes, typically yielding strong miles per gallon figures. Road tax should be relatively affordable given its modest engine size and lower emissions profile. Maintenance costs are generally sensible due to wide parts availability, though potential buyers should budget for occasional exhaust mounting replacements and routine brake servicing based on past history.
Pay close attention to the offside front driveshaft constant velocity (CV) boot, which has a track record of splitting and letting in dirt during previous MOT tests in 2018, 2019, and 2020. Inspect the front brake discs and pads for pitting and wear, as advisories for worn friction materials appeared consistently between 2018 and 2021. Additionally, check the rear exhaust mounting and system support, which was noted as defective or inadequately supported in both 2017 and 2021 tests, alongside a recurring minor note regarding a stone-chipped windscreen.
First registered in February 2013, this blue 1.2-litre petrol Peugeot 208 has covered a remarkably low 28,038 miles by its last recorded MOT in October 2021. While the low mileage is a major selling point, the MOT history reveals recurring issues with CV boots and front brakes that will require careful inspection.
The Peugeot 208 is generally known as a practical and economical hatchback, though specific examples require vigilance regarding suspension rubber components and standard wear-and-tear items.
