2002 Peugeot 307 1.6L Petrol · AE52 PZB

The Peugeot 307 presents a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent test on 26 September 2023 at 54,048 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. The prior pass dated 29 September 2022 at 47,673 miles also showed a clean sheet. Two failed tests on 26 September 2023 and 22 September 2022 at near-identical mileages were logged with no defects recorded, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults. The vehicle's upkeep appears consistent across the three years of available data. Recorded mileage sits at 54,048 against a 2002 build, averaging roughly 2,252 miles per year. The car added 6,375 miles between the September 2021 test at 41,452 miles and September 2022 at 47,671 miles, then a further 6,375 miles to the 2023 test. This low, evenly spread annual use suggests light running with possible extended standing periods. The sparse three-year record shows no advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion, so wear patterns on consumables remain undocumented by the tester. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's 24-year age and likely prolonged idle spells. Peugeot 307 models of this era commonly suffer from rear beam axle corrosion and degraded suspension bushes that a no-defect MOT does not preclude. The brake discs, calipers, and coil springs warrant physical measurement despite the clean history. Check the exhaust emissions and coolant system for deterioration from low-use cycling. The duplicated fail-and-pass entries on the same dates imply the seller or previous owner corrected paperwork promptly, but verify the V5C and full service history to confirm the odometer has not stalled through disuse or gauge failure.
