2008 Peugeot 308 1.6L Diesel · CK08 AFA

The vehicle appears mechanically stable based on the available data, though the MOT history is severely outdated. The most recent test on 14 June 2022 resulted in a pass at 131,939 miles, but the car has not undergone a certified inspection in over four years relative to the current date of 18 July 2026. This gap creates a significant blind spot regarding the current roadworthiness and structural integrity of the chassis. The mileage pattern is consistent with the age of the vehicle. Between 20 June 2020 at 123,959 miles and 14 June 2022 at 131,939 miles, the car covered 7,980 miles over two years. This suggests a period of light use. However, the total lack of recorded mileage or testing since mid-2022 indicates the vehicle may have been stationary for a prolonged period, which often leads to perished tyres, seized brake calipers, and degraded battery health. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection focusing on components that deteriorate during long-term storage. Priority should be given to checking for corrosion on the sills and suspension mounting points, as these are common failure points for this model. The absence of any recorded advisories across the 2020 to 2022 period is unusual for a car of this age and mileage, suggesting a very clean history or a lack of detailed reporting. Verify the condition of the rubber components, including tyre sidewalls and suspension bushes, which may have cracked due to age rather than wear. The braking system requires a full check for binding or oxidation on the discs. Given the four-year lapse in testing, the vehicle should be treated as unroadworthy until a fresh MOT confirms the current state of the exhaust emissions and structural safety.
