Every Peugeot Rcz model year
Pass rates fall as cars age, so the only fair comparison for a 2014 car is other cars of the same age. The full run for the Peugeot Rcz:

What a 12-year-old car fails on
A 2014 car is 12 years old now, and age drives the failure mix more than the badge does. Across all cars tested, these are the categories that actually cause failures:
- Lights and electrical: 10.36% of all cars tested
- Suspension: 8.65% of all cars tested
- Tyres: 6.23% of all cars tested
- Brakes: 6.1% of all cars tested
- Visibility: wipers, washers, glass: 4.65% of all cars tested
- Body, chassis and structure: 3.18% of all cars tested
That is around average, so condition and service history will tell you more than the odometer does. On a 2014 Peugeot Rcz the average at test was 62,041 miles, so treat anything far above that as a car that has worked harder than its peers, and anything far below as one worth checking for the faults that come from standing still.
The strongest year for this model is 2016 at 82.8%, and the weakest in our data is 2011 at 67.4%. That 15.4 point spread across the model's life is why comparing a 2014 car against a newer one tells you very little.
