2008 Peugeot 307 2.0L Diesel · LT08 AHE

The Peugeot 307 failed its most recent MOT on 6 February 2025 at 113,736 miles, with the DVSA record showing no defects logged against that failure. Prior to this, the vehicle passed cleanly on 5 February 2024 at 99,827 miles, 21 January 2023 at 89,487 miles, and 25 January 2022 at 85,185 miles, following an earlier failure on 20 January 2022 at 85,129 miles which also recorded no defects. The maintenance trend cannot be classed as stable or worsening on mechanical evidence, as the history is free of advisories and listed faults; the lone recent failure is anomalous and unexplained by the supplied data. Annual mileage has averaged roughly 6,300 miles across the vehicle's eighteen-year life, a typical figure for a car of this age. The records show steady annual use rather than long dormant periods: the odometer moved from 85,185 miles in January 2022 to 89,487 in January 2023, then to 99,827 in February 2024 and 113,736 by February 2025. No rapid accumulation or suspicious gaps appear. The clean pass sequence from 2022 through 2024 suggests the previous keeper kept basic statutory testing current, though the two defect-free failures imply administrative or unrecorded presentation issues rather than neglected consumables. A buyer should seek the physical failure reason for the February 2025 test, since a no-defect failure often points to a documentation, lighting, or emissions presentation fault not captured in the summary. With no advisories ever raised on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or structural corrosion, the underside and brake components warrant a hands-on check for hidden wear that testers did not flag. Given the 2008 chassis age, inspect sills, subframes, and suspension mounts for corrosion, and confirm the braking system is free of binding calipers. The unexplained 2025 failure means the car is currently unroadworthy until retested; do not assume the earlier clean record clears it.
