2021 Peugeot 208 GT Premium EV Electricity · AV71 BVB

The 2025‑08‑27 MOT at 21,996 miles records a failure, rendering the vehicle not roadworthy at the time of testing. The earlier 2024‑09‑09 test at 12,571 miles showed no defects, but the subsequent failure on the same day indicates a worsening condition, particularly the recurring rear service brake fluctuation noted in both records. Mileage has risen from 12,571 miles in September 2024 to 21,996 miles in August 2025, an increase of 9,425 miles in just under eleven months, equivalent to roughly 8,500 miles per year, far exceeding the average annual mileage for a five‑year‑old car. A buyer should therefore prioritize a close examination of the rear brake system, including pads, discs and calipers, to verify that the fluctuating condition does not indicate binding or excessive wear, and test the front wiper mechanism for proper operation and clearance. In addition, inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, structural rust on the chassis and subframes, exhaust condition, tyre tread depth and brake disc wear will address the mechanical and structural risks highlighted by the test history.
