2016 Peugeot 108 1.2L Petrol · DS16 WHF

This Peugeot 108 demonstrates a consistently stable roadworthiness record, with every MOT test since 2021 passing without any recorded defects or advisories. The most recent inspection on 22 May 2025—just over a year ago—confirmed the vehicle met all DVSA standards at 47,438 miles, indicating no immediate mechanical or structural failures. The absence of recurring issues across five consecutive tests suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though this does not preclude hidden wear or deferred servicing beyond MOT scope. The recorded mileage of 47,438 miles over a decade—approximately 4,744 miles per year—is unusually low for a vehicle of this age, suggesting either minimal use or prolonged periods of inactivity. Mileage increments between tests remain steady: roughly 3,000 miles annually, with no abrupt spikes or prolonged gaps that might indicate neglect or rapid wear. While low mileage generally correlates with reduced consumable wear, it also raises questions about whether fluids (e.g., brake fluid, coolant) have been refreshed according to manufacturer intervals, particularly if the car has stood unused for extended periods. Given the clean MOT history, the primary focus for an in-person inspection should centre on suspension integrity and brake condition. At this mileage, rear suspension bushes and coil springs may show early signs of degradation, particularly if the vehicle has been driven on uneven surfaces. Front brake calipers and discs should be checked for binding or uneven wear, as repeated MOT passes without advisories could mask early issues. Corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and underbody should also be examined, as low mileage does not guarantee rust-free structural components, especially in regions prone to salt or humidity. Finally, verify that all fluid levels (engine oil, brake fluid, power steering) are correct, as stagnation can lead to contamination or failure even in lightly used vehicles.
