2016 Peugeot 308 1.6L Diesel · DK66 AAO

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile based on the most recent inspection. On 21 August 2024, at 102,175 miles, the Peugeot passed its MOT with no defects or advisories recorded. This suggests a stable maintenance trend where the previous owner maintained the vehicle to a standard that met all safety and environmental requirements at the time of testing. The recorded mileage of 102,175 miles over a ten-year period reflects an average annual usage of approximately 10,200 miles. This pattern is consistent with typical UK mileage for a family hatchback, indicating the car has not been subjected to excessive high-speed runs. Since the last test occurred less than two years ago, the vehicle is currently overdue for its annual certification check, necessitating a fresh inspection to verify that no mechanical issues have developed in the interim. Given the lack of historical advisories, an in-person inspection should focus on standard wear items for a vehicle of this age and mileage. A buyer should examine the suspension components, specifically control arm bushes and dampers for signs of perished rubber, as these often fail around the 100,000-mile mark. The braking system should be checked for uneven pad wear or scored discs, given the time elapsed since the last pass. Structural integrity of the chassis and underbody should be verified for corrosion, particularly around the sills and wheel arches, although the previous record did not flag any immediate concerns. Checking the engine for oil leaks and assessing the condition of the timing belt remains prudent to ensure the high-mileage status has not resulted in neglected preventative maintenance.
