2014 Peugeot 208 1.4L Diesel · SB07 RAD

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a period of intermittent mechanical failures. The most recent test conducted on 12 March 2025 at 94,992 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that any previous issues identified by testers have been addressed. While the car suffered failures in both 2023 and 2024, the subsequent clean passes suggest that the vehicle is currently maintained in a condition that meets the minimum safety standards. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,900 miles per year. The data shows a steady accumulation of mileage, with 3,703 miles covered between March 2023 and March 2024, and another 4,937 miles covered between March 2024 and March 2025. This usage level suggests the car has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which helps prevent rubber components from seizing and brake systems from corroding due to lack of use. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific components that caused the failures in 2023 and 2024, as the provided record does not list the exact reasons for those declines. Given the age of the Peugeot, it is vital to check for wear on the suspension bushes and coil springs which often trigger MOT failures. Since the vehicle is nearing the 100,000-mile mark, the condition of the brake discs and the integrity of the exhaust system should also be scrutinized to ensure no hidden corrosion is developing.
