2019 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · KT19 OUF

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 28 January 2026 at 72,755 miles, though the test history reveals a concerning and worsening trend in tyre and wheel condition. A nearside front tyre damage advisory from this test directly mirrors a near-identical failure reason from the previous test in February 2025, which also cited a structural tyre tear and distorted wheels on both rear corners. This persistent pattern indicates ongoing issues with wheel integrity or tyre care, while a new failure for an inoperative rear registration plate lamp suggests deteriorating electrical maintenance. The recorded mileage presents a significant anomaly requiring scrutiny. The test on 8 February 2025 listed 104,787 miles, yet the subsequent test on 28 January 2026 shows 72,755 miles—a decrease of over 32,000 miles in under a year. This contradicts the stated current mileage of 72,755 and the calculated average of 10,394 miles per year for a 2019 vehicle. Such a drastic reduction is physically impossible and points to a serious data error, possibly a clerical mistake or mileage correction, which must be verified against the vehicle's documented service history. A buyer should prioritise a detailed inspection of the wheels and tyres, specifically checking all four for true running and any signs of impact damage or structural separation, given the repeated advisories and failures. The brake system warrants examination for pad wear, particularly the rear units, as thin pads were noted in September 2024. Finally, verify the function of all lighting, especially the rear registration plate lamp, and inspect the general electrical system for other neglected components. No structural corrosion or major suspension failures are recorded, but the recurring wheel and tyre issues represent a tangible risk that must be assessed in person.
