Our Verdict
Recommended for buyers seeking a low-mil
When purchasing this vehicle, prioritise the service history of the 1.2L PureTech engine, specifically checking for evidence of regular oil changes using the manufacturer-specified grade. This is critical for the longevity of the engine's timing belt system. Ensure all service intervals have been met to maintain the vehicle's operational integrity.
Given the MOT history shows repeated issues with tyres and wipers, verify the current condition of all four tyres, looking specifically for sidewall damage or patches. Negotiate based on the remaining tread depth and the age of the wiper blades, as these have been recurring failure points for this specific car.
The 1.2L PureTech engine is designed for efficiency, providing competitive fuel economy for a petrol automatic in the city. As a Euro 6 AM vehicle, it is ULEZ compliant, meaning it will not attract daily charges in London's Ultra Low Emission Zone or similar clean air zones across the UK.
Insurance groups for the 208 Allure are typically moderate, and the vehicle's tax band is standard for its engine size. Maintenance costs are generally predictable, though the automatic transmission may require specific fluid checks as the vehicle ages.
Closely inspect the tyres, particularly on the nearside. The MOT records show a nail in the nearside front tyre in April 2026 and damage to both nearside tyres in May 2024. Ensure there are no further bulges or cuts in the sidewalls that could compromise safety.
Check the windscreen wipers for streaking or tearing, as failures were recorded in both 2024 and 2026. This aligns with aggregate model data identifying wipers as a top failure reason for the Peugeot 208. Finally, test the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) to ensure the malfunction noted in the April 2026 MOT has been fully resolved.
This white 2020 Peugeot 208 Allure has recorded 36,965 miles, which is below the model average. Its MOT history includes two failures in 2024 and 2026, both of which were limited to tyres and windscreen wipers. The vehicle is Euro 6 compliant and powered by the 1.2L PureTech automatic engine.
The Peugeot 208 has an average MOT pass rate of 87.2%, with windscreen wipers being one of the most common failure points across the model range.
