Our Verdict
A sensible choice for city driving, this Peugeot 108 shows a consistent track record of passing MOT tests without defects. While the mileage is climbing, the lack of recorded failures in recent years is a positive indicator for a buyer.
When viewing this specific 1.2L petrol model, verify that the service history matches the steady mileage progression seen in the MOT records. Because the vehicle has covered over 70,000 miles, you should check if major service items, such as spark plugs or coolant changes, have been addressed according to the manufacturer's schedule.
Negotiate based on the mileage; while the MOT history is clean, 72,779 miles is a significant amount of use for a small city car. Ask for evidence of any recent work performed after the April 2026 MOT to ensure the car is ready for immediate use.
The 1200cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, making this a low-cost option for urban commuting. You can expect relatively low insurance groups and affordable tax bands, which are typical for this class of vehicle.
Maintenance costs for the Peugeot 108 are generally manageable, though as the vehicle approaches higher mileage, you should budget for standard wear-and-tear items like tyres and brakes. The estimated annual running cost is relatively modest for a petrol hatchback.
Given the recent MOT history shows no defects, focus your inspection on the mechanical and cosmetic condition that an MOT does not cover. Check the clutch engagement and gearbox smoothness, as these are common areas of interest on high-mileage small petrol engines.
Inspect the red paintwork for any signs of fading or stone chips, and check the interior for wear consistent with 72,000+ miles. Pay close attention to the tyres and brake pads, as these are the components most likely to require attention following a clean MOT pass.
This 2016 red Peugeot 108 with the 1.2L petrol engine has a clean MOT history spanning the last five years. Since 2022, the vehicle has passed every inspection without any recorded defects or advisories. The mileage has increased from 43,578 in 2022 to 72,779 in April 2026, showing a steady rate of use.

AI Analysis
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.
