2019 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · DF19 CKG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the most recent inspection indicates a shift toward reactive rather than preventative maintenance. While the car passed its test in April 2026 at 58,042 miles, the failure just one day prior revealed multiple mechanical issues. The tester identified a rough offside front wheel bearing and pitted, scored brake discs on both front sides, alongside an inoperative registration plate lamp. This suggests that the owner only addressed faults once they triggered an MOT failure rather than replacing components during routine servicing. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,300 miles per year. Between April 2024 at 44,068 miles and April 2026 at 58,042 miles, the car covered 13,974 miles, which reflects a standard rate of use. However, the presence of an exhaust leak in 2024 and multiple tyre condition issues in 2023 indicates that while the mileage is low, components are showing signs of age and potential neglect between service intervals. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the front suspension assembly. The previous failure of the offside front wheel bearing necessitates a check for any remaining play or noise, ensuring the replacement was executed correctly. The recorded pitting and scoring on the front brake discs point to either high levels of corrosion from prolonged standing, which can affect braking performance and pad life. You should also verify the state of the tyres, as the 2023 record flagged perishing and uneven wear across multiple corners, suggesting the rubber compound may be hardening despite the relatively low mileage.
