2014 Peugeot 108 1.0L Petrol · GD14 WCZ

The 2014 Peugeot 108 shows a stable roadworthiness trend over the last three MOT cycles, with no defects recorded in any of the most recent tests. The most current pass occurred on 22 August 2025 at 42,183 miles, just under a year ago, placing it well within the legal 12-month MOT window. The absence of advisories or failings in any of the last five tests suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level without any recurring mechanical issues. However, the duplicate entry for the 2024 test—one pass and one fail at the same mileage—appears anomalous and may indicate a clerical error or double-testing, though it does not reflect actual vehicle condition. The recorded mileage of 42,183 miles over 12 years equates to approximately 3,515 miles annually, which is unusually low for a vehicle of this age. The gap between tests shows consistent 4,000-mile intervals, yet the gradual accumulation suggests the car has spent extended periods stationary or in light use. Notably, there is no evidence of rapid mileage accumulation, which would have raised concerns about accelerated wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, or drivetrain components. The lack of mileage spikes also implies minimal high-speed or heavy-load stress, though this does not preclude underlying issues from prolonged inactivity, such as seized wheel bearings or degraded brake fluid. Given the clean MOT history, the primary focus for an in-person inspection should centre on consumable components that degrade predictably over time, even with low mileage. Tyres, despite no recorded failings, should be checked for uneven wear patterns or excessive tread depth variation, as the 2023 test did not specify tread measurements. Wiper blades and headlight aim, if not recently replaced, may require attention. The suspension—particularly rear bushes and coil springs—should be examined for perishing or excessive play, as these are common failure points in vehicles of this age, even with low mileage. Brake discs and calipers, though not flagged in tests, warrant inspection for lateral run-out or binding, especially if the vehicle has spent periods unused, as moisture can accelerate corrosion. Structural integrity, including underbody corrosion around the sills and wheel arches, should also be assessed, as rust can compromise the chassis without immediately affecting MOT passability.
