2017 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · KN17 TYC

The vehicle presents in a roadworthy condition with a clear trend of improving maintenance standards. The most recent inspection conducted on 29 August 2025 at 46,511 miles resulted in zero defects, indicating that previous mechanical issues identified in earlier tests have been addressed. This represents a significant recovery from the 2022 period where the vehicle failed its test due to lighting and braking issues. At nine years old, the recorded mileage of 46,511 miles reflects a low-use profile averaging approximately 5,168 miles per annum. The data shows a consistent usage pattern, with roughly 3,200 miles covered between November 2023 and September 2024, and another 9,000 miles between September 2024 and August 2025. This low mileage generally reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain but suggests that rubber-based components may suffer from agerelated degradation rather than distance. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and suspension given the recurring faults. The November 2023 test at 34,386 miles flagged imbalanced rear brakes and worn front suspension arm bushes on both sides. While these passed in subsequent tests, the history of binding nearside front brakes in 2022 suggests the calipers or slider pins may be prone to seizing. Furthermore, the 2022 failure noted perishing tyres across all four corners indicates the vehicle has likely sat for long periods; a thorough check of the current tyre sidewalls for cracking is essential regardless of remaining tread..
