2015 Peugeot 108 1.0L Petrol · NG64 VHC

The emergence of corrosion in the braking system marks a shift in an otherwise stable roadworthiness record. While the vehicle passed its latest test on 26 February 2026, the advisory for a corroded nearside rear brake pipe indicates the beginning of structural degradation. Prior to this, the record shows a consistent pattern of passes with only minor defects related to windscreen wipers and tyre condition, suggesting the vehicle has remained roadworthy with minimal significant mechanical failure over the recorded period. A total of 20,268 miles over eleven years results in an average annual usage of approximately 1,843 miles. This low mileage indicates the vehicle has likely experienced long periods of inactivity or very limited use. Mechanically, this usage profile often manifests as the degradation of rubber components due to age rather than wear, which is supported by the 2022 advisory regarding perishing and cracking in both rear tyres. The primary area for inspection is the nearside rear brake pipe. The buyer should confirm whether the corrosion is surface-level or deep, and whether the grease mentioned in the 2026 report is obscuring further deterioration. On the road, any softness in the brake pedal or a lack of immediate response should be noted as potential symptoms of compromised brake line integrity. Further checks should focus on the windscreen wiper system, which caused a test failure in February 2024. Ensure the blades operate smoothly across the entire screen without skipping or leaving streaks. Additionally, given the history of tyre perishing, a close inspection of all tyre sidewalls and rubber window seals is necessary to identify any further age-related cracking that may have developed since the 2022 inspection.
