2013 Peugeot 208 1.6L Diesel · SC62 AHF

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a pass on February 4, 2026, at 108,516 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes on the same day. In both 2025 and 2026, the car failed its initial test but passed upon re-examination hours later. This suggests the previous owner addressed specific mechanical defects only when prompted by the MOT tester, rather than performing proactive preventative maintenance. The mileage profile is consistent with a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,300 miles per year. Between January 2024 at 101,813 miles and February 2025 at 105,473 miles, the car covered 3,660 miles, which is lower than the average. However, it gained 3,043 miles in the year leading to the 2026 test. This relatively low mileage suggests that the age of rubber components and suspension bushings remains a greater concern than high mechanical drivetrain wear. While the most recent test recorded no defects or advisories, the recurring failures on the day of testing indicate a reactive approach to vehicle care. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the braking system for signs of binding calipers or worn discs, which may have triggered the previous failures. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check of the structural integrity for corrosion and the condition of the coil springs and bushes is essential, as these components often degrade over time regardless of low mileage.
