2015 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · CU15 OFR

The Peugeot 208 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 27 August 2025 at 56,599 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, though the same date also shows a failed attempt with no defects listed, suggesting an administrative or presentation error at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. Prior annual tests in September 2024 at 48,887 miles, October 2023 at 43,925 miles, and October 2022 at 38,359 miles all passed cleanly with no advisories raised. The recorded mileage of 56,599 over roughly eleven years equates to about 5,145 miles per year, which is low for a 2015 supermini. The annual increments are consistent: 5,534 miles between the 2022 and 2023 tests, 4,966 between 2023 and 2024, and 7,712 between 2024 and 2025. No sudden accumulation or dormant gaps appear. The clean record across all entries shows the previous keeper kept the car lightly used and attended tests on schedule, with no skipped years. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unblemished MOT trail. Low-mileage cars left standing for periods often develop perished suspension bushes, flat-spotted tyres, and surface corrosion on brake discs or underbody seams not yet severe enough for a tester to record. The August 2025 fail with no defects logged warrants confirmation the V5C and DVSA portal show a valid current certificate. Check the front coil springs and track-rod ends for cracking, and confirm the exhaust emissions remain within limits given the gentle use. The absence of advisories implies no immediate mechanical risk, but eleven years of age means rubber components and fluid condition deserve scrutiny before purchase.
