2013 Peugeot 208 Allure E-HDI 1.6L Diesel · RF62 ACO

The vehicle currently maintains a positive roadworthiness status, following a clean pass in its latest test in February 2026 at 163,425 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has passed without defects in the last three consecutive inspections since a minor failure in late 2023. The absence of advisory notes in the two most recent tests suggests that the previous owners have been proactive in addressing mechanical wear and consumable items before they could result in formal safety-related failures. At 13 years old, the recorded mileage of 163,425 miles represents a high usage profile of approximately 12,500 miles per year. The data shows consistent and heavy use, particularly noting the 12,600 miles driven between December 2023 and January 2025, and another 7,500 miles in the fourteen months preceding the final test. This high-frequency operation typically places significant stress on the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system, yet the lack of recorded advisories indicates that these systems have been maintained adequately well despite the high mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components most susceptible to high-mileage wear on a Peugeot 208. Given the consistent usage, a close look at the suspension arm bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers is necessary to check for perished rubber or leaks. While the MOT history is clean, the buyer should inspect the brake discs for thinning or uneven wear and ensure there are no signs of binding calipers. Additionally, verifying the structural integrity of the chassis for corrosion remains a priority for a vehicle of this age, even one with a documented high-mileage diesel engine.
