2009 Peugeot 308 1.4L Petrol · CV09 BKD

The 2009 Peugeot 308 presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 4 June 2024 at 88,000 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. The vehicle cleared that examination one day after a failure on 3 June 2024 at 87,999 miles where the tester logged no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. Prior to this, the car passed cleanly on 26 April 2023 at 84,034 miles and again on 26 May 2022 at 81,652 miles, showing no worsening pattern of advisories or failures across the visible history. At roughly 17 years old with 88,000 recorded miles, the Peugeot has covered approximately 5,176 miles per year, which is low for its age and suggests light use or extended standing periods. The records show a gentle accumulation: 81,652 miles in May 2022, 84,034 miles in April 2023, and 87,999 miles by June 2024, an average of under 3,000 miles annually across those tests. The DVSA data is sparse and clean, with no advisories on brakes, suspension bushes, coil springs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions in any entry, so the low mileage has not yet translated into logged wear items. A buyer should still inspect the vehicle in person for age-related structural integrity concerns not captured by these passes, particularly underneath for corrosion on subframes and sills given the 2009 build and likely static intervals. The twin 2023 and 2024 same-day fail-then-pass pairs with zero defects recorded point to clerical or presentation anomalies at the testing station rather than owner neglect, yet the absence of advisories means tyres, wiper blades, and brake disc thickness have not been formally flagged for attention. Verify the actual condition of consumables and check for binding calipers or degraded suspension rubbers that a clean MOT will not reveal.
