Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2022 Peugeot 108?

Yes. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. A full MOT history analysis will highlight patterns that a single test result won't reveal.

What corrosion should I look for when inspecting a 2022 Peugeot 108?

Check brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that is expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.

Tyres and brakes are the most common advisory items on vehicles of this age. Budget for replacement if they are near the limit, and factor this into your offer price.

The 2022 Peugeot 108 is a genuinely reliable performer, with a 96% first-time pass rate that sits well above the UK average of 80%, and only 4.3% of vehicles ever recording a dangerous defect. This is a low-risk proposition for MOT compliance.

At just 14,627 miles median mileage, these cars are still relatively young and lightly used, which explains the minimal failure rate of 0.1 per vehicle on average. If you're buying one, focus your pre-purchase inspection on the routine advisories (averaging 0.8 per car) rather than worrying about structural or safety surprises.

The 2022 Peugeot 108 passes its MOT first time more often than most UK vehicles (96% vs ~80% average) — and when it does fail, it's usually something minor and cheap to fix.
