2013 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · FG63 YPW

The 2013 Peugeot 208 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 25 November 2025 at 72,090 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following an anomalous failure on the same date and mileage that listed no defects, a clerical or administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in November 2024 at 71,591 miles and November 2023 at 70,563 miles also passed cleanly. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or worsening condition across the available record. Annual mileage sits low for a thirteen-year-old car at roughly 5,545 miles per year. The record confirms light use: only 499 miles accrued between November 2023 and November 2024, and just 499 miles again to the 2025 test. A larger jump of 7,737 miles appears between the 2022 test at 63,300 miles and 2023 at 70,563 miles, suggesting a period of heavier use or a prior owner's commute. The clean pass history with no flagged corrosion, brake, or suspension issues implies basic upkeep was maintained, though sparse entries before 2022 leave earlier care unverified. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean MOT trail. Low mileage with long standing periods risks perished rubber components such as suspension bushes, droplinks, and tyre sidewalls not captured in a pass with no advisories. The same-day fail and pass in November 2025 warrants confirmation the V5C and DVSA portal show no suppressed defect. Check underneath for structural rust on sills and subframes, and confirm brake discs and calipers are free from binding after storage. The Peugeot 1.2 and 1.6 units of this era can suffer wet belt or coolant issues unseen by MOT; a pre-purchase mechanical check remains sensible.
