2011 Peugeot 308 1.6L Diesel · KY61 ABX

The 2011 Peugeot 308 presents a current MOT pass dated 1 October 2025 at 148,335 miles, with the official record listing no defects. Mechanical maintenance trend reads as stable across the documented period, though the history contains two fail-repass cycles where testers recorded zero faults. The most recent examination cleared the car nine months before today's assessment, indicating acceptable roadworthiness at that time. Mileage progression aligns with typical use for a fifteen-year-old hatchback. The July 2023 test at 131,137 miles preceded a September 2024 pass at 143,997 miles, showing roughly 12,860 miles over fourteen months. A further 4,338 miles accumulated to the October 2025 pass at 148,335 miles, lowering annual rate. The sparse record of five entries reveals no rapid accumulation or prolonged standing, and the consistent no-defect outcomes suggest previous owners kept basic consumable wear within legal limits. No advisories or defects appear for suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, corrosion, exhaust emissions or structural integrity across any test. The September 2024 fail at 143,788 miles and September 2025 fail at 148,333 miles both list no defects, implying administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical fault. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of aged components such as front suspension arms, rear trailing arm bushes, brake calipers and underbody rust given the vehicle's mileage and Peugeot 308 patterns. Verify the reason for the two zero-defect failures with DVSA before purchase, as the record lacks explanatory notes. Confirm current tyre tread, wiper operation and fluid levels in person, since these consumables fall outside MOT defect logging yet degrade with time.
