2020 Peugeot 208 Allure Puretech S/S 1.2L Petrol · SA70 HXS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on September 30, 2025 at 43,640 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows reactive tendencies, as the car failed that same test due to a bulging nearside front tyre, a cut offside front tyre, and a perished nearside front anti-roll bar linkage dust cover. While these issues were rectified to achieve the pass, the history indicates that components are being addressed upon failure rather than through preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,273 miles per year. Between September 2023 at 36,170 miles and October 2024 at 40,830 miles, the car covered 4,660 miles. This suggests low to moderate annual usage, which generally reduces wear on the drivetrain components compared to high-mileage examples. A buyer should pay close attention to the braking system, which shows recurring issues. Since the September 2023 test at 36,170 miles, the offside rear brake pads and discs have been flagged multiple times for thinness, pitting, and scoring. A physical inspection should verify the remaining life of the pads and the condition of the rotors to ensure they are not nearing immediate replacement. Additionally, the suspension and exterior components should be scrutinized. The failure of the anti-roll bar linkage dust cover in 2025 suggests that rubber elements are beginning to age and perish. Given the previous failures related to windscreen wipers and headlamp alignment in 2024, the buyer should also confirm that all visibility and lighting equipment is properly adjusted and functioning correctly to avoid further regulatory failures.
