2013 Peugeot 208 1.4L Diesel · FX63 HZF

A consistent record of clean MOT results over the last several years defines this vehicle's recent roadworthiness profile, following a brief period of tyre-related advisories. While the 2022 and 2023 tests flagged wear on the front tyres, the most recent inspection on 01 October 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This indicates that the previous issues regarding tread depth and edge wear were addressed, and the vehicle has since maintained a defect-free status through its latest two annual inspections. The recorded mileage of 112,996 miles over a thirteen-year period represents a steady usage pattern of approximately 8,692 miles per year. This level of annual accumulation is consistent with typical UK driving habits for a small hatchback of this age. Mechanically, this suggests that components such as the suspension, braking system, and drivetrain have been subjected to regular, moderate use rather than the extreme wear associated with high-mileage motorway transit or the potential stagnation and seal degradation often seen in vehicles with significantly lower annual mileage. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the tyre condition, given the recurring advisories for worn edges in 2022 and 2023. While the 2025 record is clear, these previous advisories can sometimes indicate issues with wheel alignment or suspension geometry. During a test drive, pay close attention to the steering response and listen for any pulling to one side on straight roads. You should also check for any uneven tread wear across the front tyres, which could suggest that the tracking or camber settings require adjustment. Beyond the tyre history, the absence of recorded defects regarding structural integrity or fluid leaks means there are no specific mechanical failures to investigate from the DVSA data. However, given the vehicle's age and mileage, a thorough visual check of the suspension bushes and brake pads is advisable to ensure no new wear has developed since the last test. Listen for any rhythmic knocking or clunking sounds when driving over uneven surfaces, which would indicate wear in the suspension linkages or mounting components.
