2021 Peugeot 208 GT Premium EV
CarHunch analysed 1,659 real MOT records for the 2021 Peugeot 208 GT Premium EV. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2021 Peugeot 208 GT Premium EV is solidly reliable, with an 88% first-time pass rate that beats the UK average of 80%, and only 8.4% of vehicles ever presenting a dangerous defect—well below concern level. At an average mileage of 24,300 miles, these are relatively lightly-used cars for their age, which explains the low failure rate of just 0.33 per vehicle.
The main wear pattern shows advisories clustering around 1.8 per car, suggesting minor maintenance items rather than serious problems. When shopping for one, budget for routine EV servicing and check the battery health independently, as the low mileage means most examples should still be in strong working order.
What to check before buying a 2021 Peugeot 208 GT Premium EV
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.
