2012 Peugeot 208 1.4L Diesel · MM12 ABN

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent inspection on 19 September 2025 at 86,785 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently achieved passes following minor re-tests despite recorded failures immediately preceding them in both 2024 and 2025. The lack of recorded advisories on the latest test suggests that the primary mechanical and structural components currently meet the minimum safety standards for their age. At 86,785 miles over 14 years, the Peugeot has averaged approximately 6,200 miles per year. This figure aligns with typical low-to-moderate usage patterns for a city hatchback. The data shows consistent annual intervals, with roughly 9,100 miles covered between September 2023 and September 2024, and approximately 3,300 miles covered between September 2024 and 2025. This steady progression suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components and corrosion in brake lines. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific areas that triggered the previous failures in 2024 and 2025. While the record does not list the specific defects for those failures, such occurrences often involve minor items like light bulb replacements, tyre tread depth, or exhaust emission adjustments. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough check of the suspension bushes for perished rubber and the rear coil springs for excessive corrosion remains advisable. Additionally, verify the brake discs for thinning and the condition of the rear caliper seals, as these are common points of wear on Peugeot models in this mileage range.
