2017 Peugeot 108 1.0L Petrol · LO17 FHY

A consistently clean MOT record across seven consecutive tests, most recently passing on 8 April 2026, shows no recorded defects or advisories beyond a COVID‑19 six‑month extension in May 2020. This uninterrupted pass history indicates that, at each annual inspection, the vehicle satisfied the statutory safety and emissions criteria without any documented failures. With 94 120 miles logged over roughly nine years, the average annual accumulation is about 10 500 miles, which sits comfortably within normal usage for a small city car of this age. The MOT schedule exhibits no significant gaps; tests have been carried out at roughly twelve‑month intervals, confirming that mileage has been recorded consistently and that the car has not experienced periods of prolonged inactivity that could conceal hidden deterioration. Although the MOT history records no mechanical faults, a prudent buyer should still verify the condition of wear‑related components that typically reach the end of their service life around this mileage. On a test drive, listen for any clunking or knocking when traversing bumps, which could reveal worn suspension bushes or deteriorating rear shock absorbers; feel the brake pedal for any judder or sponginess that might indicate thinning pads or glazed discs; and inspect the tyre tread for uneven wear patterns that could point to misaligned steering or compromised suspension geometry. A visual check of the wheel arches, under‑body and wheel wells for surface rust or corrosion, especially around the suspension mounting points, is also advisable. Finally, confirm that all lighting, signalling and exhaust systems operate correctly, and look for any signs of fluid leakage around the engine bay or under the chassis. Given the clean MOT record, any defects uncovered during a pre‑purchase inspection are likely to be routine wear items rather than latent failures, but addressing them before the next test will help maintain the vehicle’s roadworthiness and avoid unexpected repair costs.
