Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and thorough inspec
When viewing this vehicle, prioritize checking the recent repairs made following the March 2026 MOT failure. You should ask for documented proof that the anti-roll bar linkages, the insecure rear bumper, and the damaged bonnet have been professionally addressed. Given the previous advisories regarding brake discs and drums, ask for the most recent service records to see if the braking system has been fully overhauled or merely adjusted.
Negotiate based on the high mileage and the visible damage noted in the MOT records, such as the bonnet. Ensure the tyres are not just legal, but have healthy tread depth, as this vehicle has a history of tyres being worn close to the limit or perishing. A full service history should be present to supplement the MOT data, especially regarding the 998cc petrol engine's maintenance.
As a small 998cc petrol engine, this Peugeot 108 is designed for efficiency and falls into a relatively low insurance group, making it economical for newer or budget-conscious drivers. Tax bands for this engine size are typically low, contributing to minimal annual fixed costs.
Maintenance costs for this model are generally modest due to the simplicity of the components. However, the MOT history suggests frequent replacement of consumables like tyres and brake components. Expect an estimated annual running cost of approximately £900-£1,200, depending on your annual mileage and insurance profile.
Specifically inspect the front suspension components; the MOT history shows recurring issues with anti-roll bar linkage pins and bushes in both 2023 and 2026. A test drive is essential to check for any knocking or clunking sounds from the front end that might indicate the recent repairs were not exhaustive.
Examine the braking system thoroughly. The March 2026 MOT noted worn front discs and rear drums. Check for any pulsation in the brake pedal or grinding noises. Additionally, inspect the rear bumper for stability and the bonnet for the damage noted in the recent records to ensure it is securely fastened and does not affect the vehicle's aerodynamics or safety.
This 2016 white Peugeot 108 has covered 86,522 miles since its first registration in March 2016. The MOT history shows a transition from relatively clean tests to a failed MOT in March 2026, which required attention to anti-roll bar linkages, brakes, and tyres. The mileage is notably high for a city car of this age, reflecting significant annual usage.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Peugeot 108 to provide a comparative statistical overview.

Historical fault & advisory patterns
Common Problems: PEUGEOT 108
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Clutch Wear from Heavy Urban Use(Moderate)
The 108 spends most of its life in traffic, so clutches and release bearings wear out well before the rest of the car is finished. A new driver's car often needs a clutch by 50k miles.
- Front Suspension Knuckle and Spring Wear(Moderate)
The front suspension bushes, drop links and springs wear quickly on UK roads. Snapped front springs are a common MOT failure on older 108s.
