2016 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · BF66 JSX

The 2016 Peugeot 208 is currently roadworthy, the most recent MOT on 7 January 2026 recording 32 431 miles and showing no defects. The preceding annual tests in January 2025 (27 485 miles) and January 2024 (23 623 miles) were also clean, indicating a stable maintenance pattern. The only adverse entry was a single‑lamp failure on 20 December 2022 at 19 775 miles, concerning the rear registration plate lamp (4.7.1(b)(ii)). That isolated fault has not reappeared, so the vehicle’s condition is not deteriorating. Mileage accumulation over the ten‑year life averages roughly 3 200 miles per year, a low figure for the model’s age. The gap between the 2022 and 2024 tests added 3 848 miles, while the 2024‑to‑2025 interval added 3 862 miles. The most recent year saw a higher increase of 4 946 miles, suggesting slightly heavier recent use. Overall the data set is regular rather than sparse, with each annual test covering a consistent mileage range. A buyer should verify the rear registration plate lamp operation, as the previous failure could indicate a faulty bulb holder or wiring. With low mileage, wear items such as suspension bushes, coil springs and brake disc condition are likely still within normal limits, but a close inspection is advisable. Check the brake calipers for binding, the exhaust for corrosion, and the under‑body for rust, especially around the wheel arches and sills. Tyre tread depth and wiper blade condition should also be assessed, as these consumables are not reflected in the MOT record but are critical to ongoing reliability.
