2013 Peugeot 208 1.4L Petrol · KM62 YKC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in January 2026 at 105,443 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory following a period of multiple advisories between 2022 and 2025. While the car previously suffered from wear-related issues, the clean sheet from the latest test indicates that the owner addressed the flagged mechanical faults before they escalated into failures. At 105,443 miles over 13 years, the Peugeot has averaged approximately 8,111 miles per year, which aligns with typical annual usage for a small hatchback of this age. The record shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 4,500 miles covered between the January 2025 and 2026 tests, and approximately 3,800 miles between 2024 and 2025. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, which generally benefits the condition of the rubber components and fluid seals. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the front suspension geometry, as the test in January 2024 flagged worn bushes on both front suspension arms. Although these were not mentioned in subsequent tests, these components are prone to accelerated wear at this mileage. The braking system also warrants scrutiny; while the 2022 test noted pitted rear brake discs and a binding offside rear caliper, the buyer should verify that the handbrake travel remains correct and that all wheels rotate freely without heat-related drag. The exhaust flexi-pipe leak noted in January 2025 should be visually inspected for signs of further corrosion or to ensure the repair was effective. Given the history of tyres reaching the legal limit or perishing in 2022, the current tyre set should be checked for tread depth and sidew integrity to ensure they are not nearing the end of their life. The record reflects a vehicle that has been maintained reactively as issues were identified.
