2021 Peugeot 208 Allure Puretech S/S 1.2L Petrol · SE03 GRE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 30 December 2025 at 29,968 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but reveals a reactive approach to upkeep regarding consumable items. While the car passed the May 2024 test without defects, the failure in May 2025 due to tyre condition indicates that the owner only addressed critical issues once they reached legal thresholds rather than performing preventative maintenance. At five years old, the recorded mileage of 29,968 miles represents a low usage profile of approximately 6,000 miles per annum. This low mileage suggests less wear on high-stress components like the suspension and brake assemblies. The data shows consistent intervals between tests, with 8,605 miles covered between May 2024 and May 2025, and another 4,522 miles covered leading up to the final December 2025 test. This steady accumulation aligns with a vehicle used primarily for short-distance urban commuting. A buyer should specifically inspect the front tyres during a physical inspection. The May 2025 failure flagged a nearside front tyre with a cord cut and low tread, while the December 2025 advisory noted the offside front tyre worn on the edge. This pattern of uneven wear suggests a potential alignment issue or incorrect geometry that could lead to premature tyre degradation. Checking the suspension bushes for excessive play is also advisable to ensure the uneven wear is not caused by mechanical play. Given the low mileage, the risk of significant structural corrosion or drivetrain-related failure remains low. However, one should verify the brake discs for surface rust or pitting, as low-mileage vehicles often sit for extended periods, leading to oxidation. The lack of recorded mechanical failures or emission issues in the history suggests a generally healthy powertrain, provided the identified tyre and alignment concerns are addressed immediately.
