Expert verdict

Lamps & electrics: 1.9× the national share

Lamps & electrics make up 22.7% of everything recorded on the 2016 Peugeot Autocruise, against 12.2% nationally — 10.5 points above. Walk round the car with the lights on before the test: bulbs, indicators and number-plate lamps are the cheapest failures to prevent and among the most common.

Before your test

Three checks worth doing on a 2016 Autocruise

These are not generic tips — they are the faults recorded most often on this exact model, rewritten as things you can check yourself. All three take about ten minutes and cost nothing.

  1. Check the lights 1.5% of tests

    “headlamp not working on main beam”

    Switch everything on and walk round the car: both headlamps on dip and main, every indicator, both brake lights, reverse, fog and the two number-plate lamps. A bulb is a few pounds and a five-minute job.

  2. Check the horn 1.5% of tests

    “horn not working”

    Press it. That is the whole check, and a surprising number of cars fail on it.

  3. Check the exhaust and emissions 1.5% of tests

    “on or after 01/01/2014 emissions exceed manufacturer's specified limit”

    Listen for a blow at idle and have someone rev it gently. Then look at the tailpipe smoke: blue is oil, white when warm is coolant, black is over-fuelling. Any of those and the emissions test is the least of it.

Shares are the proportion of tests on this vehicle that recorded the item, so they overlap: one test can record several.
