2008 Peugeot 308 1.6L Petrol · CX08 GFK

The Peugeot 308 passed its most recent MOT on 3 September 2022 at 112,069 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend across the available history. The vehicle carries a clean test record with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged by testers. At 18 years old, the documented evidence shows no worsening condition and no recurring faults requiring ongoing attention. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for the age, with roughly 6,226 miles covered per year. The record shows 106,008 miles on 10 September 2021, rising to 112,069 by the September 2022 test, a modest 6,061 miles over twelve months. A failed test on 10 September 2021 at 106,008 miles was followed immediately by a pass at 106,009 miles the same day with no defects logged, suggesting an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a genuine mechanical fault. The sparse three-entry history provides limited visibility but shows no rapid accumulation or prolonged standing periods. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection given the vehicle's age and the thin MOT trail. The absence of recorded advisories means suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and structural corrosion were not flagged, but eighteen years of service can hide degraded components the annual test did not capture. Prior owners appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance, though the single-day fail-pass pair implies no serious neglect was uncovered. Focus the viewing on underbody structural integrity, front suspension arm bushes, and rear brake caliper operation. Verify exhaust emissions against current standards and check tyre sidewall condition for age cracking. The clean record is reassuring, yet the low test frequency means wear on consumables and chassis rot must be confirmed hands-on before purchase.
