2013 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · CU63 BZT

The Peugeot 208 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 19 December 2024 at 49,448 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the available history. The mileage pattern reflects exceptionally light use for a 2013 vehicle. From the 26 July 2021 test at 43,572 miles, the car covered only 5,876 miles over the following 3.4 years, reaching 49,448 miles by December 2024. Annual averages sit near 3,800 miles. The record shows no gaps beyond the expected annual cycle and no rapid accumulation. Four passes and one failed attempt on the same date with no defects logged suggest an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of corrosion-prone structural points and suspension bushes given the low mileage and likely periods of standing. Long idle spells accelerate perishing of rubber components and promote underbody rust even where the MOT found nothing. Verify the brake discs and calipers for seizure after limited use, and confirm the 2021 failure cause with DVSA to exclude any omitted defect.
