2018 PEUGEOT 3081.6L Diesel

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status having passed its most recent inspection on March 27, 2025, 150,023 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the record shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes on the same calendar date. This suggests that the previous owner was proactive in addressing de-listed items to ensure the vehicle remained legal rather than allowing minor faults to accumulate into significant mechanical or structural failures. At 150,023 miles over eight years, this Peugeot 308 has covered a high average of approximately 18,753 miles per year. The data between the November 2023 test at 149,944 miles and the March 2025 test at 150,023 miles shows only 779 miles driven over those sixteen months. This significant drop in usage contrasts with the historical average and indicates high-intensity motorway operation which typically places considerable stress on the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and braking system. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-mileage components that often fail between MOT tests. Given the mileage, check for play on control arm bushes, worn coil springs, and signs of shock absorber leakage. While the record shows no recurring advisories, the high mileage necessitates a thorough check of the brake discs for thinning and the calipers for binding. Inspect the underbody for corrosion particularly around the sills and exhaust mounting points to ensure the heavy-duty use has not compromised the structural integrity of the chassis despite the clean MOT history.
