Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2014 Peugeot V Clic?

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.

The 2014 Peugeot V-Clic posts an 83.7% first-time pass rate, which edges ahead of the UK average of 80%, suggesting reasonable baseline reliability. However, nearly a quarter of vehicles (22.5%) have recorded a dangerous defect at some point, which is a material concern for a prospective buyer and warrants a thorough pre-purchase inspection.

These cars show unusually low mileage for their age—a median of just 6,538 miles—which suggests most were city runabouts used sparingly, though this also means you're buying a vehicle with limited real-world stress-testing. With an average of 3.1 advisories per test, minor wear items crop up regularly, so budget for consumables and check brake components carefully when viewing one.

We have limited data for the 2014 Peugeot V Clic — treat the figures below as indicative rather than definitive.

⚠️ Over 1 in 5 of these vehicles have had a dangerous MOT failure at some point — usually tyres or brakes, and often a one-off issue rather than a persistent problem. The group stats won't tell you which one you're looking at.
