PEUGEOT 208 ACTIVE2016 · 1.2L Other

The 2016 Peugeot 208 Active presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 23 August 2025 at 25,088 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Across every available MOT entry the vehicle passed without advisories, showing no worsening or recurring mechanical faults. The absence of any failure or flagged component points to consistent statutory compliance over its recorded life. Mileage stands at 25,088 miles against a ten-year age, an average of roughly 2,500 miles per year. The test history shows a clear low-use pattern: 13,189 miles on 16 November 2020, rising to 17,219 by 13 June 2022, 19,328 on 29 May 2023, 22,722 on 30 August 2024, and 25,088 on 23 August 2025. A notable gap exists between the 2020 and 2022 tests, spanning roughly nineteen months, yet annual accumulation stayed low throughout. The clean record with no corrosion or suspension bushes warnings suggests the car was not subjected to heavy urban cycle duties or neglect of consumables. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of items the MOT cannot fully assess on a low-mileage, periodically stood vehicle. Long idle periods risk perished rubber components, seized brake calipers, and flat-spotted tyres despite the tester recording no defects. We recommend examining brake disc condition, underbody structural integrity for hidden corrosion, and suspension arm bushes for cracking. The sparse but clean history implies careful previous ownership, though low mileage alone does not certify component longevity.
