2020 Peugeot 208 Allure Puretech S/S 1.2L Petrol · CV70 ABU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with the most recent MOT on 2025-06-25 at 31,537 miles recording a pass and no defects. The maintenance trend shows stability, as the prior test on the same date at 31,535 miles also passed, despite a failed result listed for the same mileage. This suggests potential administrative inconsistency or repeated testing, but no mechanical issues were flagged in the latest assessment. The absence of defects in the last three tests (2023-2025) indicates consistent adherence to safety standards, though the low mileage of 31,537 for a 6-year-old vehicle raises questions about usage patterns. The mileage progression reveals a sharp increase from 16,273 miles in 2023 to 23,011 in 2024, followed by a jump to 31,537 by 2025. This 7,738-mile rise in 12 months contrasts with the vehicle’s low annual average of 5,256 miles, implying possible periods of inactivity or sudden heavy use. The MOT records are sparse, with no defects noted across six tests, but the lack of detailed findings limits insight into component wear. The repeated fails at identical mileages (23,011 and 31,535) may reflect procedural errors rather than mechanical faults, though this remains unverified. A buyer should prioritize an in-person inspection of the suspension system, particularly the rear coil springs and bushings, as low mileage can mask hidden fatigue. The braking system, including calipers and discs, warrants scrutiny for corrosion or uneven wear, which may not appear in MOT checks. Exhaust emissions and structural integrity should also be confirmed, as the vehicle’s age and mileage suggest potential for age-related degradation. While the MOT history shows no critical issues, the irregular mileage trends and administrative anomalies in testing records justify a thorough pre-purchase survey.
