2008 Peugeot 308 1.6L Diesel · FN08 GYZ

This Peugeot 308 is currently roadworthy and demonstrates a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 March 2026 at 125,128 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern over the last three years, where the vehicle has passed its annual inspections without any recorded advisories or mechanical failures. The mileage is typical for an 18 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,952 miles per year. The distance covered between the March 2024 test at 119,124 miles and the March 2026 test at 125,128 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 3,000 miles per annum over the last two years. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or hidden deterioration. The MOT history is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age, showing no recorded failures for suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions. While the record shows failures on 1 March 2025 and 3 March 2026, the lack of listed defects suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues resolved instantly. The absence of any mentioned corrosion is positive, but a buyer should still physically inspect the sills and chassis rails for structural rust, as these are common failure points for this model that may not have been flagged in recent tests. A physical inspection should focus on the condition of the tyres and brake pads. Because the MOT record shows no advisories, it is unclear when these consumables were last replaced. Checking for oil leaks around the engine bay and verifying the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements is essential, as these critical maintenance items are not captured in a standard MOT test.
