2012 Peugeot 308 1.6L Diesel · AP62 TNO

The vehicle presents in a stable roadworthiness condition, following a consistent maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 23 September 2025 at 86,547 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. This follows a clean pass in September 2024 at 82,748 miles, suggesting that the previous owner has addressed necessary mechanical requirements as they have arisen. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,200 miles per year. Between September 2022 and September 2025, the car covered 8,806 miles, showing a steady and low-intensity usage profile. A brief anomaly occurred on 19 September 2024 when the vehicle failed at 82,738 miles, but it was re-tested exactly one day later at 82,748 miles and passed without further defects. This suggests a minor component failure or a lighting issue that was rectified immediately, rather than a systemic mechanical failure or structural neglect. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to age-related degradation despite the low mileage. Given the vehicle's age, rubber-based components such as suspension bushes and control arm boots should be checked for cracking or dry rot. The brake discs and calipers should also be examined for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-mileage cars can sometimes suffer from oxidation if left stationary. While the lack of structural advisories in the record suggests the chassis remains sound, a manual visual check of the sills and wheel arches remains necessary to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed since the last test.
