2018 Peugeot 208 1.6L Diesel · YX18 BUP

This Peugeot 208 presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 February 2026 at 58,044 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a rapid rectification of a minor issue. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for an eight year old vehicle. Between 28 February 2023 and 19 February 2024, the car covered 6,931 miles. A significant drop in annual usage followed, with only 914 miles added between February 2024 and February 2025, before increasing again to 5,283 miles by the February 2026 test. This pattern indicates periods of lighter use but no evidence of prolonged standing that would typically cause perished seals or battery degradation. The MOT history is exceptionally clean, showing no recorded advisories or failures regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural corrosion over the last four years. This suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance or a very light duty cycle. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the consumables. Given the lack of flagged issues in the DVSA record, focus should remain on the current condition of the tyre treads and brake pad thickness. Checking for any signs of oil leaks around the engine bay will confirm if the mechanical health matches the clean testing history.
