2016 Peugeot 108 1.2L Petrol · FC16 PVT

The vehicle remains technically roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a clear decline in mechanical care and structural attention. The most recent test in November 2025 at 50,123 miles revealed a significant number of advisories that were not present in previous years. While the car passed, the accumulation of corroded brake pipes, leaking gearbox seals, and deteriorating suspension components suggests the vehicle is entering a phase requiring reactive rather than preventative maintenance. At 50,123 miles, this ten-year-old Peugeot has clocked low mileage, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. The usage pattern appears consistent, with roughly 10,000 miles covered between November 2024 and November 2025. However, the low mileage does not translate to pristine condition; the long periods of likely between tests likely contributed to the degradation of rubber components, as evidenced by the recurring cracking and perishing of tyres noted across 2023, 2024, and 2025 records. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and braking system. The 2025 record flagged corrosion on both front MacPherson struts and a corroded offside brake pipe, which are safety-critical items that will fail if left untreated. The noted oil leak from the gearbox diff seal should be monitored for flow rate to ensure it does not escalate. Furthermore, the recurring reports of tyres worn to the legal limit or perishing indicate that the previous owner neglected basic consumable upkeep until the MOT tester intervened, necessitating an immediate investment of new tyres.
