Our Verdict
Exercise caution before purchasing this high-mileage Peugeot 308. While the recent MOT pass is a positive sign, the extremely high mileage relative to its age is the primary concern.
Your priority should be verifying the service history to see how the 1.6L diesel engine has been maintained at these high mileages. With over 173,000 miles on the clock, components like the turbocharger, fuel injectors, and clutch are likely nearing the end of their typical service life.
Negotiate the price downward to reflect the high mileage and the potential for upcoming heavy maintenance. Ensure you check for any evidence of recent major work, such as timing belt or water pump replacements, as these are critical for this engine type and often occur at intervals well before this mileage.
As a 1.6L diesel, this Peugeot 308 is designed for efficiency, likely offering decent fuel economy on long motorway journeys. However, at this mileage, maintenance costs may be higher than average due to the increased likelihood of wear-and-tear repairs on suspension and engine components.
Tax and insurance groups for this model vary, but you should confirm the specific band for this 1560cc engine. Expect annual running costs to be influenced heavily by your annual mileage, which historically has been very high for this specific vehicle.
Pay close attention to the drivetrain and lighting. While the recent MOT failure in April 2025 did not specify the defect, aggregate data for this model shows headlamps, tyres, and drive shaft joints as common failure points. Inspect the drive shaft joints for any play or clicking sounds during low-speed turns.
Given the 173,704 miles recorded, also inspect the suspension components, bushes, and shock absorbers for signs of excessive wear. Check the tyres for even wear, as the model is prone to tyre-related MOT issues.
This 2015 red Peugeot 308 diesel has covered 173,704 miles in approximately ten and a half years. The MOT history shows a recent failure in April 2025 followed by an immediate pass, with no other recorded defects across the previous four tests. However, the vehicle has been driven significantly more than the model average of 7,295 miles per year.
Aggregate data from 156,083 vehicles shows a 76.5% MOT pass rate for this model, with common issues involving headlamps, tyres, and drive shaft joints.
