2021 Peugeot 208 Allure Premium EV Electric · L60 JSA

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 20 February 2026, although this followed an initial failure on the same day due to ineffective windscreen wiper blades. While the 2024 test was entirely clean, the most recent inspection reveals a downward trend in the vehicle's condition. The transition from a fault-free record to one containing multiple advisories regarding tyre integrity and wheel damage suggests a decline in preventative maintenance or a recent period of harder usage. With a recorded mileage of 32,321 miles over approximately five years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 6,464 miles per annum. This represents a typical usage profile for a modern electric city car, meaning the battery and drivetrain should not exhibit excessive wear. However, this mileage often coincides with the point where original factory consumables reach the end of their service life, and the recent MOT advisories confirm that the tyre tread has now reached a critical state. Prospective buyers must pay close attention to the tyre and wheel condition, as the MOT record indicates significant issues. The reports of tyres worn on the edge and damaged sidewalls on the nearside front and rear suggest potential wheel alignment problems or a history of kerbing. More concerning is the distorted nearside rear road wheel, which indicates a substantial impact. During a test drive, the buyer should listen for abnormal road noise and feel for any vibrations through the chassis or steering wheel, which would confirm the distorted wheel is affecting the vehicle's balance and rotational symmetry. Immediate expenditure will be required to rectify these safety concerns. A full replacement of the rear tyres is necessary, and the nearside front tyre should be inspected for structural bulges caused by the recorded sidewall damage. It is strongly recommended that a four-wheel laser alignment is performed to address the edge wear and ensure the vehicle does not continue to scrub through new rubber prematurely. Finally, the distorted alloy wheel should be assessed by a specialist to determine if it can be refurbished or if a complete replacement is required to ensure long-term structural integrity.
