2016 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · CP66 CZS

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following the most recent MOT pass on 23 March 2026 at 80,951 miles, which recorded no defects. This follows a period of mechanical instability in early 2025 where the car failed its test. The transition from a failed inspection in January 2025 to a clean pass in March 2026 suggests that the previously identified faults were addressed, indicating an improving maintenance trend. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical passenger vehicle of this age. The car covered 63,744 miles by January 2024 and reached 80,951 miles by March 2026, representing an average of roughly 8,600 miles per year over the last two years. This steady usage pattern avoids the potential issues associated with long periods of inactivity, such as seized components or perished rubber seals, while remaining within a reasonable wear bracket for a ten-year-old Peugeot. A prospective buyer should focus physical inspections on the exhaust system and engine bay. The January 2025 failure specifically flagged a broken and rusted front exhaust bracket and an engine oil leak. While the subsequent passes suggest these issues were rectified, the presence of rust on the exhaust bracket and the occurrence of an oil leak warrant a close examination of the engine's cleanliness and the structural integrity of the exhaust mounting points. The record also noted a malfunctioning tyre pressure monitoring system and a windscreen chip during the January 2025 and May 2025 tests. Although the most recent MOT shows no defects, verifying that the TPMS sensor is fully operational and checking the windscreen for any new stone chips or cracks is advisable. The absence of advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or tyre tread in the recent history is a positive indicator of current consumable condition.
