2021 Peugeot 308 1.5L Diesel · AS70 NAB

This Peugeot 308 has covered exceptionally high mileage for its age, recording approximately 113,000 miles in roughly five years. This equates to an annual average of over 22,000 miles, which is well above typical usage and suggests the vehicle has likely been subjected to heavy daily use or long-distance motorway driving. The most recent MOT history from February 2026 reveals a significant maintenance event. The vehicle initially failed its test on the same day it eventually passed due to issues with the rear braking system. The failure specifically cited rear brake pads that were less than 1.5 millimetres thick and rear brake discs that were worn, pitted, or scored. The mechanical trend indicates that wear is accumulating in line with the high mileage. While the 2025 test was clean, the recent brake failure shows that critical safety components are now requiring replacement. The fact that it passed immediately after the failure suggests the work was carried out, but you need to confirm the quality of those repairs. Given the mileage, you should expect accelerated wear on consumables and drivetrain items. Even though the MOT history is largely limited to the brake issue, the high odometer reading increases the risk of latent wear on the clutch, flywheel, and suspension bushes, which may not yet be severe enough to fail a test but could require attention soon.
