2014 Peugeot 108 1.2L Petrol · PY64 FLP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in January 2026 at 17,507 miles resulted in a pass but introduced an advisory for the nearside front brake pads wearing thin. This follows a clean result in early 2025, indicating that while the vehicle remains mechanically sound for road use, components are only being addressed once they approach failure thresholds or visible wear. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old car, averaging approximately 1,460 miles per year. This low usage is evident in the gaps between tests, such as the 1,409-mile increase between December 2022 and January 2024. However, the low mileage has clearly led to age-related degradation rather than mechanical wear. The 2024 failure record highlighted multiple tyres perishing and cracking due to being ten years old, suggesting the car sits stationary for long periods, allowing the rubber to dry despite having remaining tread depth. A buyer should specifically inspect all rubber-based components, as the history indicates a recurring issue with perished tyres and ineffective wiper blades. The 2024 failure for the windscreen wiper suggests that secondary items are being neglected due to the low frequency of use. Additionally, the advisory for thin nearside front brake pads in 2026 necessitates a physical check for uneven wear or corrosion, which can occur on low-mileage vehicles that are not driven regularly. The structural integrity of the chassis should be verified, as low-use cars are often prone to surface rust if stored in damp environments.
