Our Verdict
A reasonable option for those seeking a
Verify the full service history to ensure the 1.0L engine has been maintained, as MOT records do not provide evidence of oil or filter changes. Given the 2022 failure regarding parking brake efficiency and lever movement, confirm that these repairs were carried out to a professional standard.
When negotiating, check if the tyres have been replaced since the 2022 advisories for worn offside treads. As drive shaft joints and exhausts are common failure points for this model according to aggregate data, a thorough underbody inspection is recommended.
The 1.0L petrol engine is designed for urban efficiency, which typically results in lower road tax and a modest insurance group. Maintenance costs for this model are generally low, although tyre wear is a frequently cited issue across the 208 range.
Annual costs will be driven primarily by fuel and insurance. Based on the engine size and vehicle class, the overall expenditure remains competitive for a used petrol hatchback.
Check the parking brake for firmness and effectiveness, as the vehicle previously failed for excessive lever movement and low efficiency in 2022. Inspect all four tyres for tread depth and even wear, noting that both offside tyres were flagged as worn close to the legal limit in 2022.
During the test drive, listen for any clicking sounds from the front wheels or unusual noise from the exhaust, as these are identified as top failure reasons for the Peugeot 208 in aggregate MOT data. Ensure the dipped beam headlights are functioning correctly following the 2022 failure.
This grey 2015 Peugeot 208 with a 1.0L petrol engine has recorded 51,224 miles as of its last MOT in July 2023. The vehicle's history includes one failure in June 2022, which was resolved within one day. Its recorded mileage is below the model average of 5,903 miles per year.
The Peugeot 208 maintains a respectable aggregate MOT pass rate of 79.8%, with common failures typically involving tyres, exhausts, and drive shaft joints.
