2009 Peugeot 308 1.6L Diesel · CE09 YSK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT data. The most recent test on 19 March 2024 at 149,125 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean certificates over the last three years, indicating that the car has been maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation aligns with typical usage for a 17 year old vehicle. Between March 2022 and March 2024, the odometer rose from 117,996 miles to 149,125 miles. This represents a significant increase of 31,129 miles over two years, suggesting the car has been used heavily for commuting or long distance travel recently. The jump of 13,751 miles between March 2023 and March 2024 shows a steady increase in annual usage. Despite the clean MOT history, the current date of 27 July 2026 means the last recorded test is over two years old. The vehicle is now overdue for its annual inspection. A buyer must verify if a more recent test exists or prepare for the likelihood of new defects emerging during a fresh inspection. Given the high mileage and the age of the Peugeot 308, a physical inspection should focus on components that wear regardless of MOT outcomes. Priority should be given to checking the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and the integrity of the brake discs. The buyer should also inspect the chassis and sills for corrosion, as structural rust often develops gradually and may not be flagged until it becomes a critical failure.
