2016 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · GL16 VCN

The Peugeot 208 maintains an exemplary roadworthiness record, with the most recent MOT test conducted on 19 June 2025 at 35,434 miles resulting in a clean pass with no defects or advisories. This performance reflects a highly stable maintenance trend, as the vehicle has cleared every annual inspection since 2022 without a single recorded failure or minor fault. The absence of recurring issues suggests that the vehicle has been subjected to consistent, light usage and likely benefitted from proactive owner care. The recorded mileage of 35,434 over a ten-year period averages approximately 3,500 miles per annum, which is significantly lower than the typical UK usage profile. The data shows a steady, incremental increase in mileage between the 28,430 recorded in June 2022 and the current 35,434, indicating the car has remained in regular operation rather than sitting idle for extended periods. This consistent usage pattern is generally preferable to long-term storage, as it reduces the risk of seized components or fluid degradation often associated with low-mileage vehicles. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of rubber components and braking hardware, as low-mileage cars can suffer from age-related perishing even when passing MOT tests. While the history shows no structural or mechanical failures, examine the brake discs for surface corrosion and check the sidewalls of the tyres for cracking or signs of dry rot. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for any evidence of premature wear or minor surface rust that may not have reached the threshold for an MOT advisory. Given the clean history, the primary concern remains the mechanical impact of the vehicle's age rather than any underlying pattern of neglect.
