Our Verdict
A solid option for city driving, this Peugeot 108 presents a clean MOT history with no recorded defects over the last three years. It is a sensible choice for those seeking a low-complexity vehicle with consistent testing records.
Given the absence of MOT failures or advisories in the recorded history, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history to ensure the 998cc engine has received regular oil changes. Ask the seller for documentation confirming that scheduled maintenance has been carried out according to Peugeot's manufacturer intervals.
When viewing this specific green 108, check the interior condition and any electronic components, as these are common areas of interest in small city cars. While the MOT data is clean, always perform a physical inspection of the tyres and brake pads, as these are consumable items that may require attention regardless of a passing MOT certificate.
The 998.0cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, likely placing this vehicle in a low insurance group and a favourable tax band. Fuel economy should be relatively high, especially for short-distance urban commuting.
Maintenance costs for a vehicle of this age and engine size are typically modest, though you should budget for routine items like tyres and wipers. We estimate the total annual running cost, including fuel, tax, and insurance, to be in the lower end of the spectrum for small petrol cars.
As the MOT history for FY20XML shows no recorded defects or advisories across the last three tests, there are no specific mechanical failures to cross-reference. However, you should still inspect the vehicle for common small-car wear such as suspension bushings and tyre tread depth.
Check the service book specifically for evidence of oil and filter changes, as the MOT record only confirms the vehicle met minimum safety standards at the time of testing and does not confirm mechanical upkeep. Ensure the green paintwork is free of significant stone chips or scratches, which are common on low-slung city cars.
This 2020 Peugeot 108 in green has covered 34,494 miles since its first registration in March 2020. The MOT history shows three consecutive passes since 2023, with no failures or advisories noted at the 17,631, 27,381, or 34,494-mile marks. The small 998cc petrol engine is well-suited to its urban-focused design and current mileage profile.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Peugeot 108 to provide a comparative reliability score.

Historical fault & advisory patterns
Common Problems: PEUGEOT 108
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Clutch Wear from Heavy Urban Use(Moderate)
The 108 spends most of its life in traffic, so clutches and release bearings wear out well before the rest of the car is finished. A new driver's car often needs a clutch by 50k miles.
- Front Suspension Knuckle and Spring Wear(Moderate)
The front suspension bushes, drop links and springs wear quickly on UK roads. Snapped front springs are a common MOT failure on older 108s.
