Peugeot 104 Zr (1982)
1982 Peugeot 104 Zr
CarHunch is tracking 391 1982 Peugeot 104 Zr vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 1982 Peugeot 104 ZR is a genuinely rare survivor—391 vehicles in our database haven't passed an MOT, which tells you these cars are either off the road entirely or no longer subjected to testing. A 0% first-time pass rate against the UK average of 80% sounds alarming, but it reflects the simple fact that 42-year-old cars of this age are rarely still in regular use; what you're looking at is the tail end of a model's lifecycle, not a reliability problem.
The absence of recorded failures, advisories, and dangerous defects means these vehicles have largely exited active ownership. If you're considering one, mileage data isn't available because the remaining examples are either display pieces, barn finds, or cherished classics—not everyday runners. Before buying, get a full pre-purchase inspection from a specialist who knows 1980s Peugeots, because MOT data alone won't tell you whether 40 years of age and dormancy have left the mechanicals sound.
We have 391 1982 Peugeot 104 Zr vehicles in our database, but the DVLA's digital MOT records for vehicles of this age don't include reliable pass/fail outcomes — detailed test statistics aren't available for this vintage.
What to check before buying a 1982 Peugeot 104 Zr
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
