2015 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · DL15 EAA

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, evidenced by a clean MOT pass on April 20 2026 at 58,609 miles where no defects were recorded. This represents an improving maintenance trend following a period of recurring mechanical issues. While previous tests showed consistent concerns regarding the braking system, the most recent inspection without advisories suggests that the owner has finally addressed the outstanding faults that had appeared in earlier years. The mileage profile is notably low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,300 miles per year. The data shows consistent, light usage between 2018 and 2022, though there is a visible increase in activity between April 2023 and April 2026, where the car covered over 12,500 miles in three years. This shift toward higher annual mileage often accelerates the degradation of rubber components and tyres, which aligns with the structural tyre failure noted in 2023. A buyer should specifically inspect the front braking assembly, as the record indicates pitted, scored, or worn discs across three consecutive tests from 2023, 2024, and 2025. Although the 2026 test was clean, the recurring nature of this fault suggests a tendency toward corrosion or surface wear due to low-use cycles. Additionally, check the condition of the tyres for cracking or perishing, as the 2023 failure for a structural lump and sidewall cracking indicates the rubber compound may be age-related despite the low overall mileage.
