2016 Peugeot 108 1.0L Petrol · NG65 HHA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history shows a worsening trend regarding suspension and rubber components. While it passed its latest test in March 2026 at 58,275 miles, the tester flagged significant corrosion across all four coil springs. This represents a progression from the 'slight' corrosion noted in March 2025, indicating that the suspension hardware is reaching the end of its functional life due to age and oxidation despite the car's low mileage. The mileage profile is consistently low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per year. Records show a steady accumulation of mileage, moving from 38,680 miles in 2023 to 48,723 miles in 2024, and reaching 58,275 miles by early 2026. This low usage pattern appears to correlate with the degradation of rubber components, as evidenced by repeated reports of cracking and perishing on the tyres due to age rather than tread wear. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension geometry and check for hairline fractures or further corrosion on the mounting points. The recurring failure of the coil springs suggests the vehicle may require a full set replacement shortly to ensure structural integrity. Additionally, the front brake discs have been noted for corrosion in both 2025 and 2026, suggesting the car may sit for long periods, allowing surface rust to build. The tyres should be checked for sidewall rot, as the record shows a persistent history of perishing and material cracking.
