2013 Peugeot 308 2.0L Diesel · JE55 AAD

The 2013 Peugeot 308 remains roadworthy with no defects recorded in its most recent MOT on 2025-10-06 at 98,270 miles. The maintenance trend is stable, as all five consecutive MOTs from 2021-03-26 to 2025-10-06 show passing results with no recorded issues. This consistency suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a standard meeting legal requirements, with no emerging mechanical or structural concerns flagged in the tested components. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,559 miles annually. Notable gaps include 16,429 miles between the 2021-03-26 test (62,789 miles) and 2022-06-13 (79,218 miles), which may indicate periods of reduced use or infrequent motoring. Subsequent intervals show steady accumulation, with 7,567 miles between 2022-06-13 and 2023-07-27, followed by 7,636 miles and 3,849 miles in later tests. The absence of defects across all checks implies no significant wear or failure in critical systems, though higher mileage may still affect consumables like tyres and brake components. A buyer should inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and exhaust emissions system, as these are not evaluated in standard MOTs but are prone to degradation over time. Corrosion in the chassis or bodywork, particularly around wheel arches and underbody panels, warrants scrutiny, as it can compromise structural integrity. While the MOT history shows no advisories, the vehicle’s age and mileage suggest routine maintenance should have addressed wear on brake discs, steering linkages, and fluid levels. No recurring faults in the record indicate the previous owner prioritized basic upkeep, but a pre-purchase inspection is essential to confirm the absence of hidden issues.
