2014 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · LS64 XMC

The 2014 Peugeot 208 presents a highly stable and improving maintenance trend, demonstrating consistent mechanical reliability across its recent history. The most recent test on 3 October 2025 at 96,543 miles passed with zero defects, though this certificate expires in October 2026, meaning a fresh test is due shortly. This clean pass mirrors the result recorded on 3 October 2024 at 88,306 miles. Earlier tests in 2023 and 2024 show initial failures immediately rectified and passed on the same day or within days at near-identical mileages, indicating prompt attention to minor issues rather than neglect. No recurring mechanical or structural faults appear in the record. The mileage accumulation aligns perfectly with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. Between October 2023 and October 2024, the mileage rose from 80,182 to 88,306 miles, covering roughly 8,124 miles. The following year, from October 2024 to October 2025, it increased by 8,237 miles to reach 96,543 miles. This consistent annual accumulation of around 8,000 miles suggests regular, steady use without prolonged periods of standing or sudden, high-mileage surges that might accelerate drivetrain wear. With no recurring faults or advisories flagged in the MOT history, the record does not highlight specific structural or mechanical defects requiring urgent investigation. However, a pre-purchase inspection should still focus on typical age-related wear for a twelve-year-old supermini. A buyer should physically inspect the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration, check the brake discs and pads for uneven wear, and examine the exhaust system and underbody for corrosion. Tyre condition and manufacturing dates should also be verified, as consumable wear falls outside the scope of the MOT pass criteria.
