Our Verdict
This Peugeot e-208 GT Line has a broadly
With 87,282 miles on the clock and an EV powertrain, battery health should be your primary concern. Peugeot offered an 8-year/100,000-mile warranty on the e-208 battery, so confirm the battery state of health and remaining warranty cover. Ask the seller for evidence of any battery diagnostics — most dealers and specialists can run a capacity check showing remaining kWh versus new. Given the November 2024 failure involved tyres with exposed ply or cords on two wheels, inspect all four tyres carefully for wear and ensure replacements are recent.
The 2024 test also flagged both wiper blades as defective and noted windscreen damage. While the damage was deemed not to affect the driver's view, check for any chip expansion, particularly given UK weather. A clean service history from a Peugeot dealer or EV specialist would strengthen confidence — without it, you have no documented record of battery conditioning, software updates, or brake fluid changes (which EV owners often neglect due to minimal mechanical servicing).
Negotiate hard on price given the above-average mileage and the 2024 failure. A fair discount should account for likely near-term tyre replacement and any uncertainty around battery condition.
Running an e-208 is generally cheaper than its petrol equivalent, particularly for fuel. Real-world efficiency from the 50 kWh battery typically delivers 3.5-4.0 miles per kWh, giving a range of 175-200 miles in mixed driving. With home charging on a standard tariff at roughly 25p/kWh, energy costs work out at around 6-7p per mile, or roughly £1,000-£1,300 annually for someone covering 12,000 miles. The e-208 GT Line sits in insurance group 25-27, which is moderate for an EV of this performance level.
VED (road tax) is currently £0 for fully electric vehicles, though this benefit is under review. Tyres are a known cost area — the 2024 MOT showed the nearside pair wearing through to the cords, suggesting this car is hard on rubber, and EV-specific tyres for the e-208 typically cost £150-£200 each fitted. Annual maintenance on EVs is lower than petrol cars but budget £200-£400 for routine items such as brake fluid, cabin filter, and tyre rotations.
Estimated annual running cost: £1,400-£1,800
Start with the battery. Ask for a diagnostic readout showing state of health as a percentage of original capacity. Anything below 85% on a 2021 car with 87,000 miles should be treated cautiously and used as leverage in negotiation. Check the charging port for damage and confirm both AC and DC fast charging function correctly — Peugeot e-208s have occasionally had charge port faults. Inspect the 12V auxiliary battery, which is known to fail prematurely on early e-208s and can cause mysterious warning lights.
The MOT history shows tyre wear is a recurring theme — the 2024 failure had ply or cords exposed on both nearside tyres, and the most recent test flagged nearside front wear close to the legal limit. Inspect all four tyres for uneven patterns, which could indicate suspension or tracking issues. Examine the windscreen for the damage noted in 2024 and check whether it has worsened. Verify both wiper blades have been replaced and function correctly.
Beyond MOT items, listen for any clonks from the suspension over speed humps (the anti-roll bar is the top MOT failure reason for this model), check the infotainment system boots cleanly, and ensure all driver-assistance features (lane keeping, parking sensors) calibrate without errors. A pre-purchase inspection at an EV specialist costs around £150-£200 and is strongly recommended given the mileage.
This January 2021 Peugeot e-208 GT Line in grey has covered 87,282 miles across five MOT tests, recording one failure in November 2024. The pass rate of 80% (4 of 5 tests) sits marginally below the model aggregate pass rate of 83%. Mileage is the most significant concern, running at roughly 18,250 miles per year on average — well above the model average of 6,941 miles annually. The most recent test passed with tyre-related advisories on the front nearside, suggesting attention to tyre condition will be an ongoing requirement.
Across 779 Peugeot e-208 examples analysed, the aggregate MOT pass rate stands at 83%. The top failure reasons — anti-roll bar, tyres, and windscreen wipers — are minor consumable items rather than mechanical defects, suggesting the e-208 is mechanically sound but requires routine attention to wear items.
