Our Verdict
This Peugeot 208 is a solid consideration for buyers looking for a low-mileage petrol hatchback. The recent MOT history shows a clean record with no defects in the last two years.
When inspecting this specific 1.6L petrol model, check the service history to see how often the oil has been changed, as this engine size requires consistent maintenance. Given the MOT history shows a failure in May 2024 that was cleared on the same day, ask the seller what the specific fault was to ensure it wasn't a recurring issue.
Negotiate based on the upcoming MOT requirement. Since the last test was in June 2025, you should be looking for a vehicle that has been maintained well enough to pass its next inspection without immediate heavy expenditure on common wear items.
As a 1598cc petrol engine, running costs will be moderate compared to smaller displacement city cars. You should expect typical fuel economy for a 2014 hatchback of this class, though actual figures will depend on driving style.
Insurance groups for the Peugeot 208 vary, but the 1.6L engine typically sits in a mid-range group for this model. Maintenance costs should be manageable, though you should budget for common consumables like tyres and brake components.
Pay close attention to the underside and suspension components. While this vehicle's recent MOTs have been clean, aggregate data for this model identifies exhaust systems, drive shaft joints, and tyres as the most frequent failure points.
Check the condition of the tyres and the tread depth, as well as any signs of exhaust corrosion. Given the 2024 MOT failure, it is worth verifying that any mechanical repairs made at that time were documented.
Registered in March 2014, this red 1.6L petrol Peugeot 208 has covered 65,569 miles, which is relatively low for its age. The MOT history is largely positive, with the most recent tests in 2024 and 2025 showing no defects recorded. While there was a failure in May 2024, it was resolved within the same day, resulting in a pass.
Aggregate data for the Peugeot 208 shows an average MOT pass rate of 79.9%, with common failures related to exhausts, drive shaft joints, and tyres.
