2010 Peugeot 308 1.6L Diesel · BG10 AEJ

The 2010 Peugeot 308 demonstrates stable roadworthiness based on its recent MOT history. The most recent test on 2025-06-23 at 165,365 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming compliance with safety standards. Prior tests from 2024 and 2023 also showed passes, with no recurring issues flagged. A single failure in 2023-06-06 at 133,770 miles was recorded but without specific defects, suggesting a minor procedural or technical anomaly rather than a structural concern. The absence of critical failures in the last three annual tests indicates consistent maintenance and no emerging risks. The vehicle’s mileage of 165,365 miles over 16 years aligns with an average of 10,335 miles annually, reflecting typical usage for its age. The MOT records show regular testing with no significant gaps, though the 2023-06-06 failure occurred just a week after the 2023-06-13 pass, raising questions about the test’s consistency. The 2022-06-17 test at 115,246 miles also passed without issues, suggesting the car has not experienced rapid mileage accumulation that might accelerate wear on components like suspension or brakes. The data lacks anomalies, implying a low-risk profile for mechanical degradation. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, particularly coil springs and bushes, given the vehicle’s age, and inspect brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or corrosion. The absence of structural rust or emission-related faults in the records is reassuring, but a physical inspection is essential to confirm the integrity of the exhaust system and body panels. While the MOT history shows no major red flags, the 2023 failure warrants attention to ensure no underlying issues were overlooked, particularly in systems like the braking or emissions controls.
