2016 Peugeot 208 1.6L Petrol · WV16 VRX

The latest MOT on 8 July 2025 at 63,464 miles passed with no defects, confirming current roadworthiness, while the preceding failure on 7 July 2025 at 63,440 miles also recorded no defects, indicating a transient issue that was resolved before the successful test. The mileage profile shows roughly 6,346 miles per year since the 2016 registration, which aligns with typical usage for a ten‑year‑old vehicle; the increase from 58,092 miles in July 2024 to 63,464 miles in July 2025 adds over 5,000 miles in a single year, suggesting heightened use or a possible odometer shift, yet the overall trend remains steady with no major gaps in the testing record. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or cracking, test the rear brakes for binding calipers and examine the brake discs for scoring or excessive wear, and scrutinise the chassis and wheel arches for structural rust or corrosion, while also checking the exhaust system and emissions components for signs of deterioration. The consistent pass rate without recorded defects implies previous owners performed adequate routine maintenance, though the occasional failure points to possible deferment of brake and suspension servicing, making a thorough visual and functional inspection essential for assessing true condition.
