I am about to buy a 2010 208 1.4 diesel that has done 17,000 miles.
My concern is that when I viewed the car both front tyres are very worn on the edges (in fact the last service conducted 3 weeks ago by a Peugeot dealer indicated both were MOT failure).
If i buy the car i will obviously change both tyres but my question is could there be something more serious causing the tyres to wear this badly? The current owner says its because the tracking was badly out - and his wife failed to notify him. I have run an HPI check & it all seems clean & in order.
My only other option could be an AA / RAC vehicle inspection?
Any thoughts from current 208 owners gratefullyreceived.
many thanks
Ian
