2021 Peugeot 308 1.6L Petrol · GF70 YTK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive rather than proactive care. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 37,312 miles passed, it followed a failure just one day prior involving multiple safety defects. The transition from a clean record in 2024 to several failures in 2025 suggests the owner only addresses issues once they fail inspection rather than performing routine preventative maintenance. At 37,312 miles over five years, the Peugeot has averaged approximately 7,462 miles per year, which aligns with typical low-to-moderate usage patterns. The data shows consistent annual testing with a gap of 2,341 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 8,635 miles covered between 2024 and 2025. This relatively low mileage suggests less wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though the recent failures highlight specific neglect regarding consumable items. A buyer must physically inspect the nearside front road wheel, as the tester flagged it as slightly distorted in November 2025. This distortion often results from a significant impact and can cause steering vibrations or uneven tyre wear if not replaced. The recurring failure of the nearside front tyre for a structural bulge and tread depth below 1.6mm indicates a previous failure to monitor basic safety equipment. You should check all remaining tyres for sidewall damage or inconsistent wear patterns that mirror the recorded failures. The offside registration plate lamp was a recurring minor fault that required rectification to pass, suggesting limited attention to simple electrical checks. Since there are no recorded structural corrosion or brake binding issues in the history, the primary mechanical concerns remain the integrity of the front right wheel assembly and the condition of the tyres. Ensure the distorted wheel has not compromised the steering geometry or suspension arm during the test drive.
