2021 Peugeot 208 Allure Premium Puretech SS 1.2L Petrol · MJ71 BVT

The most recent MOT test conducted on 24 September 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a similarly clean result from the 30 September 2024 inspection. The overall maintenance trend is exceptionally stable, indicating that the vehicle has been kept in a roadworthy condition without the emergence of common wear and tear issues typically seen as a vehicle enters its fifth year of service. With a recorded mileage of 31,377 miles over approximately five years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 6,275 miles per annum. This represents a typical usage profile for a modern hatchback, suggesting a balanced mix of urban and occasional longer journeys. There is no evidence of rapid mileage accumulation that would lead to premature drivetrain wear, nor is the mileage low enough to suggest the vehicle has suffered from prolonged periods of standing, which often leads to seized components or perished seals. Given the clean MOT history, the prospective buyer should focus on time-based maintenance rather than defect rectification. It is critical to verify the service history regarding the PureTech engine timing belt, as these wet belt systems require strict adherence to oil specifications and change intervals to prevent internal degradation. Ensure the service book is stamped and that the correct oil grade has been used, as failure to do so can lead to belt debris clogging the oil pickup pipe, which is a known vulnerability for this engine architecture. During a physical inspection, examine the tyre sidewalls for fine cracking or perishing, as tyres can degrade over time regardless of remaining tread depth. Check the brake discs for any signs of heavy surface corrosion or binding calipers, which can occur if the car has spent extended periods stationary. Finally, test the 12V battery health and the efficiency of the stop start system, and listen for any unusual vibrations or rattles from the interior trim during the test drive to ensure the vehicle's overall condition matches its clean official record.
