2004 Peugeot 206 1.1L Petrol · LX04 WSL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, having passed its most recent MOT on 9 June 2025 at 95,671 miles with no defects recorded. This clean result follows a period of inconsistent upkeep, but the lack of advisories in the last two tests suggests the car is currently in a well-maintained state. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 22-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,349 miles per year. The records show a significant period of stagnation between May 2020 and June 2022, where the odometer only moved 1,173 miles. This pattern of low usage and long periods of standing often increases the risk of perished rubber components and seized mechanical parts. A buyer should pay close attention to the braking system. The tester flagged a seized brake load sensing valve twice, first in May 2014 at 71,769 miles and again in May 2024 at 90,226 miles. This recurrence indicates a chronic issue with the braking hydraulics that may require a full system flush or component replacement. The June 2023 test also noted corrosion to a brake hose ferrule, which is a common failure point on older Peugeots. Inspect the suspension and tyres during a physical viewing. The June 2022 failure for an excessively worn front lower suspension arm ball joint suggests the chassis is beginning to show age-related wear despite the low mileage. While the May 2024 test was clean, the previous flags for perished tyres and corroded brake lines suggest that preventative maintenance has been reactive rather than proactive. Check for structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches, as these are typical weak points for this model.
