Car statistics
How many Peugeot 108s are still on the road in Great Britain, how many are declared off the road, how new registrations have changed and which fuels they use. Built from DVLA licensing records and 77,108 DVSA MOT tests.
There were 73,528 Peugeot 108s licensed in Great Britain at the end of March 2026, and a further 1,039 declared off the road (SORN). That is 1.8% fewer than the peak of 74,845 in 2022.
Numbers peaked in 2022 and have fallen every year since, as older cars are scrapped faster than new ones are registered.

In 2025, 81.2% of Peugeot 108 MOT tests were passed first time, against 72.8% for all cars. Cars of the same ages as the Peugeot 108s tested pass 77.5% of the time, so the Peugeot 108 does better than average for its age, by 3.7 points. In 2024 its pass rate was 82.1%.
Comparing like with like: each bar pair covers cars of the same age, so an older average age does not count against a model.

United Kingdom figures from DfT table VEH0220 (licensed cars at the end of each year, SORN excluded), so they differ slightly from the Great Britain counts elsewhere on this page. How we use engine sizes.
The Vehicle Certification Agency’s new car data lists the Peugeot 108 from 2014 to 2023. On the WLTP test (listings 2019 to 2023), official combined fuel economy for its petrol versions ranges from 51.6 to 58.9 mpg, with CO2 of 109 to 124 g/km. On the older NEDC test (listings 2014 to 2018), official combined fuel economy for its petrol versions ranges from 65.7 to 74.3 mpg, with CO2 of 88 to 99 g/km.

DVSA lists 3 safety recalls for the Peugeot 108 since 1992, the first in 2015. The most recent was launched on 2 December 2020.
All 3 Peugeot 108 recalls, with defects, remedies and build dates
A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Peugeot 108. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a dealer. How we match recalls to models.
