2022 Peugeot 208 Allure Premium Puretech SS 1.2L Petrol · SD22 EPX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in March 2026 with 27,210 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement following a mechanical failure in the previous year. While the latest test identified a minor advisory regarding a cut offside rear tyre, the lack of further defects indicates that the primary mechanical concerns were addressed and the vehicle remains maintained to a functional standard. At 27,210 miles over four years, the car averages approximately 6,800 miles per annum, which aligns with typical low-use patterns for a modern hatchback. The mileage gap between the March 2025 and March 2026 tests shows an accumulation of 7,633 miles in twelve months. This consistent usage pattern generally puts less stress on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage vehicles, though the earlier failure suggests certain components may experience premature wear despite the low overall mileage. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the front suspension to ensure the ball joint that caused the March 2025 failure was replaced with a high-quality part and properly fitted. Given that the nearside front suspension arm was previously worn, it is worth checking for play in the remaining bushes or the opposite side to prevent recurring issues. The offside rear tyre also requires monitoring closely to ensure the reported cut does not progress toward the internal cords, which would eventually necessitate a replacement.
