2016 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · DK16 SZZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT on 07 May 2026 at 71,166 miles. The overall maintenance trend appears stable, despite a technical failure just five days prior on 02 May 2026 at 71,121 miles. That failure involved an exhaust lambda reading falling outside specified limits during a fast idle test, but the immediate pass indicates the issue was addressed, likely through a sensor replacement or fuel mixture adjustment before the retest. The mileage pattern is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,117 miles per year. Between April 2024 and April 2025, the car covered 8,528 miles, while the period between April 2025 and May 2026 saw 9,053 miles. This steady usage suggests regular driving cycles rather than long periods of stagnation which often lead to rubber perish or component seizing. The lack of advisories across the previous three tests indicates a period of generally good mechanical upkeep. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the exhaust system given the recent lambda sensor failure. While the car passed without defects, emissions issues can sometimes mask deeper upstream engine faults or catalytic converter inefficiency. It is also prudent to check the condition of the suspension bushes and brake components, although the mileage is relatively low, these parts are still subject to age-related degradation over ten years. The clean history regarding structural and corrosion advisories suggests a well-preserved chassis at this stage.
