2015 Peugeot 108 1.2L Petrol · CF15 BCK

Recurring issues with tyre condition and exhaust emissions define the mechanical profile of this Peugeot 108, following a significant failure during the 2025-11-01 inspection. While the vehicle passed its most recent test on that same date, the record shows a pattern of tyre-related advisories and a major failure involving exhaust carbon monoxide and Lambda readings that exceeded manufacturer limits. This indicates that while the immediate emissions issues were rectified to secure a pass, the vehicle has experienced fluctuating levels of component wear and engine management compliance over the last several testing cycles. The recorded mileage of 72,758 miles over approximately eleven years represents an average annual accumulation of roughly 6,614 miles. This usage pattern is consistent with typical low-to-mid-range urban driving for a vehicle of this age and class. Mechanically, this level of mileage suggests that while the drivetrain may not have faced extreme high-speed motorway stress, the vehicle has likely been subjected to frequent short trips, which can contribute to the exhaust emission irregularities noted in the 2025 failure. Prospective buyers should pay close attention to the tyre and braking components, as these have appeared consistently in the MOT advisory history. The most recent records flag offside front tyre wear on the edge, offside rear tyre cracking or perishing, and general wear on both front brake discs. During a test drive, you should check for any uneven steering pull or pulling to one side, which could indicate alignment issues related to the edge wear, and listen for any rhythmic thumping or vibration from the tyres. Additionally, monitor the brake pedal for any judder or pulsation when applying pressure at speed, which would correlate with the recorded wear on the brake discs. The 2025 failure regarding exhaust emissions and Lambda readings necessitates a close inspection of the engine's performance. Although the vehicle passed the subsequent retest, it is advisable to observe the engine for any irregular idling, hesitation during acceleration, or unusual smells from the exhaust. Given the history of tyre perishing and cracking, a physical inspection of the sidewalls of all four tyres is essential to ensure they are not showing signs of age-related degradation despite having sufficient tread depth.
