2021 Peugeot 208 GT Premium EV Electricity · LM21 ACF

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 30 January 2026 with no defects or advisories recorded. This represents a consistently stable maintenance trend, as the previous two annual tests in 2024 and 2025 were similarly clean. Such a record indicates that the vehicle has been kept in a high state of mechanical repair and has not suffered from the typical wear and tear often seen in urban-use city cars. The recorded mileage of 22,817 miles over approximately five years is significantly lower than the UK national average, equating to roughly 4,563 miles per year. While this implies minimal wear on the electric drivetrain and interior trim, low-mileage vehicles can be subject to specific degradation issues caused by periods of inactivity. The mechanical implication is a shift in risk from high-wear component failure to deterioration caused by standing. Given the clean MOT history and low usage, the prospective buyer should focus on age-related degradation rather than wear-related failure. It is essential to inspect the tyre sidewalls for signs of perishing or fine cracking, as rubber compounds degrade over time regardless of tread depth. Special attention should be paid to the braking system; because electric vehicles rely heavily on regenerative braking, the physical brake discs and calipers are used less frequently, increasing the risk of binding calipers or surface corrosion on the discs. During a test drive, listen for any grinding noises or feel for uneven braking pressure. Further inspection should cover the health of the 12V auxiliary battery, which can suffer from deep discharge cycles if the vehicle stands for extended periods. The buyer must also verify the service history for calendar-based maintenance, specifically the replacement of brake fluid, which is hygroscopic and degrades over time regardless of mileage. Finally, examine the suspension bushes and steering rack boots for signs of dryness or cracking, as rubber components can perish when not regularly flexed through normal driving cycles.
