2015 Peugeot 308 1.2L Petrol · LN15 AAZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a trend of worsening suspension and braking wear. While it passed its most recent test in October 2025 at 117,899 miles, this followed a failure just two days prior that revealed multiple mechanical defects. The transition from a clean record in 2023 to a series of advisories and failures in the last two years suggests the vehicle is entering a phase where age-related components are rapidly reaching the end of their operational life. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,700 miles per year. There is a notable period of low activity between early 2018 and late 2020, where the car covered only 4,200 miles over two years. However, since 2021, the usage has increased significantly, covering over 14,000 miles in the final year. This increase in annual mileage likely accelerated the appearance of wear on the ball joints, bushes, and braking components noted in the more recent inspection records. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front end suspension and structural integrity. The 2024 test flagged corrosion on the front lower integral body structure and play in the track rod end, while the 2025 failure specifically identified an excessively worn offside suspension arm ball joint and a perished drop link dust cover. These issues suggest the steering geometry and stability may be compromised if not addressed. Additionally, the recurring pitting and scoring on the rear brake discs noted in both 2025 tests indicate that the rear braking system requires immediate attention to prevent further degradation or inefficient stopping.
