2021 Peugeot 308 1.5L Diesel · AU71 BWC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy and exhibits a stable maintenance trend. It passed its most recent MOT on 1 July 2025 at 120,006 miles with no defects or advisories recorded. A failure occurred just four days prior on 27 June 2025 at 120,004 miles, though the record provides no specific defect details for that failure, suggesting a rapid rectification of a minor issue. The mileage is exceptionally high for a five year old car, averaging roughly 24,000 miles per year. Between the July 2024 test at 94,531 miles and the July 2025 test at 120,006 miles, the vehicle covered 25,475 miles in a single year. This level of heavy usage typically accelerates the wear of drivetrain components and suspension systems. The clean MOT history is unusual for a vehicle with this mileage, as the tester flagged no advisories for brake disc wear, tyre tread, or suspension bushes across the last two years. While the record suggests a well-maintained car, the absence of any noted wear on a high-mileage Peugeot 308 warrants a cautious physical inspection. A buyer should specifically check the condition of the clutch and gearbox for signs of wear consistent with 120,000 miles. Inspect the suspension mounts and coil springs for fatigue and check the brake pads for remaining thickness. Given the high annual mileage, verifying a comprehensive service history for oil changes and timing belt intervals is essential to ensure the engine has been supported beyond basic MOT requirements.
