2012 Peugeot 308 1.6L Petrol · EO12 ADX

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-02-26 at 30,644 miles recorded a PASS, but an identical date also shows a FAIL with no defects noted. This inconsistency suggests a potential data entry error, though the absence of recorded faults implies no immediate mechanical risks. Maintenance history from 2023 to 2026 shows consistent annual testing with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness trend. The lack of advisories or failures over four consecutive tests suggests the car has been maintained to a basic standard, though the 2026 FAIL entry remains unexplained. The vehicle’s mileage of 30,644 miles at 14 years old equates to approximately 2,189 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for its age. This low usage could indicate infrequent driving or prolonged periods of inactivity, which may lead to issues like seized components or corrosion. The MOT records show regular testing intervals, with mileage increases of 2,192 to 2,856 miles per year, reflecting steady but minimal usage. No gaps in testing are evident, and the absence of recurring defects suggests no urgent mechanical concerns. A buyer should inspect the suspension for worn bushes or coil springs, as low mileage can mask hidden wear. The braking system, including calipers and discs, should be checked for binding or corrosion, particularly if the car has been stationary. The exhaust system and underbody should be examined for rust, as prolonged inactivity may accelerate degradation. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the conflicting 2026 test results warrant clarification to confirm the vehicle’sTrue condition.
