2014 Peugeot 208 1.2L Petrol · PY14 JNK

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, evidenced by a clean MOT pass in December 2025 at 29,194 miles where no defects were recorded. The maintenance trend shows an improvement following a period of recurring consumable wear identified in previous years. While earlier tests flagged escalating brake and mounting issues, the most recent inspection indicates that the owner has addressed these mechanical requirements to bring the vehicle back to standard. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old car, averaging approximately 2,433 miles per year. The data shows a consistent low-usage pattern, with the vehicle covering only 26,139 miles between July 2017 and December 2025. However, this low mileage often correlates with age-related degradation of rubber components. This was highlighted in the December 2022 test where the nearside rear tyre was flagged for perishing and cracking, likely due to time stationary rather than tread depth. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on the braking system, as the record shows a persistent trend of wear between 2023 and 2024. Front brake discs and pads were flagged multiple times for being thin or worn, suggesting the vehicle may be used for short trips which accelerate component fatigue. The rear exhaust mounting noted as defective in 2024 should also be verified to ensure the system is now securely fastened and not vibrating excessively. Given the low mileage, a thorough check of the suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls is essential to identify dry rot or cracking that standard MOT tests might not fully capture.
