2021 Peugeot 108 1.0L Petrol · EO21 ABF

A clean overall testing record characterises this Peugeot 108, which successfully navigated an MOT test on 23 March 2026 after immediately rectifying a pair of minor wiper blade failures recorded earlier that same day. Prior annual examinations conducted in March 2025 and March 2024 yielded completely fault-free passes with zero advisories noted by the testing stations. This concise three-year test history indicates stable compliance during its initial operational phase, though the brief failure for ineffective front and rear wipers highlights that rubber wiper components had degraded sufficiently to impede proper windscreen clearance during official inspection. Accumulating a total of 16,363 miles by March 2026 places this five-year-old hatchback at an average rate of roughly 3,273 miles annually, confirming a very low-usage lifestyle. While this sparse mileage means the structural chassis, exhaust systems, and core mechanical assemblies have experienced limited distance, low annual mileage can sometimes expose components to localized environmental aging or seizing if vehicles sit stationary for extended stretches between short local journeys. Given the low mileage and short trip profiles typical of this usage pattern, a prospective buyer must pay close attention to the braking system and exhaust during an inspection. Because low-mileage city cars frequently undergo frequent stop-start braking without building sustained heat, check the brake discs for excessive pitting, surface corrosion, and edge lip wear, and listen for any scraping noises or vibration through the pedal during the test drive. Similarly, inspect the exhaust system for signs of internal moisture retention caused by short journeys where exhaust gasses never reach high enough temperatures to evaporate condensation fully from the silencer boxes. On the road, assess the steering and suspension by listening for knocks, rattles, or clunks when negotiating potholes, speed humps, and sharp turns. Although no suspension or steering defects have ever been formally recorded, the rubber bushes, drop links, and dampers should still be visually inspected for perishing or fluid weeping. Finally, verify that both the front and rear wash-wipe mechanisms operate smoothly across their entire arcs, ensuring the linkage motors and replacement blades installed following the March 2026 failure clear the glass completely without juddering.
