2015 Peugeot 108 1.2L Petrol · AF15 AAX

The 2015 Peugeot 108’s most recent MOT test on 2025-11-05 confirms it remains roadworthy, though the immediate preceding test on 2025-11-04—just one day prior—resulted in a failure without recorded defects. This anomaly suggests either a temporary administrative oversight or a minor, non-critical issue resolved between tests. Beyond this, the vehicle’s MOT history from 2022 to 2024 shows a consistent pass pattern with no advisories or defects, indicating stable mechanical condition during those periods. The absence of recurring faults implies that major systems—brakes, suspension, steering, and emissions—have not experienced persistent failures. However, the lack of any recorded defects in the failure test on 2025-11-04 raises caution, as it may obscure a potential underlying issue that slipped through testing. The recorded mileage of 93,724 miles at the latest test aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging around 8,500 miles annually. There are no significant gaps in mileage between tests, suggesting the car has been driven regularly without prolonged periods of inactivity. The steady progression—from 75,903 miles in 2022 to 93,724 miles in 2025—indicates consistent use rather than sporadic or aggressive driving. While this pattern reduces concerns about severe wear from neglect, it also means components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers have endured higher mileage than average for their lifespan. The absence of advisories in prior tests does not guarantee these parts remain intact, so visual and functional inspection is essential. A buyer should prioritise a thorough examination of the suspension system, particularly the condition of rear suspension bushes and coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The 2025 failure without recorded defects could imply a minor but recurring issue, such as binding rear brakes or worn brake discs, which might not have been captured in the test. Structural corrosion, particularly around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, should be checked for signs of rust penetration that could compromise structural integrity. Additionally, the exhaust system warrants inspection for leaks or excessive corrosion, as emissions-related faults are often overlooked until they become critical. Tyre tread depth and uniformity, while not reflected in the MOT history, should be verified, as failing twice on tread suggests basic upkeep may have been inconsistent. Finally, the electrical system—including lights, indicators, and the battery—should be tested, as advisories in these areas are common in vehicles of this age.
