2016 Peugeot 208 Active Blue HDI 1.6L Heavy oil · FD66 CKK

A history of intermittent failures and periodic wear-and-tear advisories defines this vehicle's roadworthiness record, despite a clean pass on 3 April 2026. The record is marked by a failure immediately preceding the latest pass and a 2022 failure concerning the tyre pressure monitoring system. Earlier entries from 2020 highlight a period where the exhaust mountings and front braking components were flagged for corrosion and wear, indicating a pattern of gradual component degradation. The recorded mileage of 94,124 miles over a ten-year period reflects a typical annual accumulation of approximately 9,412 miles. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle has avoided the risks associated with long-term standing, but it also means that drivetrain and chassis consumables have undergone standard wear. This is reflected in the historical record, where suspension and brake components reached their wear limits in line with the vehicle's age and mileage. Specific attention must be given to the front suspension linkages, as both the nearside and offside front suspension arm bushes were recorded as perished in 2022. On a test drive, the buyer should listen for knocks or clunks when traversing speed bumps and feel for any instability or imprecise tracking in the steering. Because these were flagged as perished, it is essential to confirm whether these bushes were replaced or if they remain in a degraded state. The braking system and electronic monitoring also require verification due to previous defects. The 2020 advisories for pitted, scored front discs and thin pads suggest a history of brake wear that should be cross-referenced with the current pedal feel; any judder under braking may indicate remaining issues with the discs. Furthermore, the previous failure of the tyre pressure monitoring system should be checked to ensure the system is currently functioning and that no warning lamps remain illuminated on the instrument cluster.
