2016 Peugeot 308 1.2L Petrol · GL16 UTA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the most recent inspection indicates a shift from perfect records to reactive maintenance. While the car achieved four consecutive clean passes between 2021 and 2024, the July 2025 test at 96,248 miles flagged worn lipped front brake discs and thin pads. This transition suggests the vehicle is now entering a phase where high-mileage wear items require scheduled attention after a long period of no recorded defects. The mileage progression is remarkably consistent with typical annual-use patterns, averaging approximately 9,600 miles per year over the ten-year period. Between the June 2023 test at 68,684 miles and the July 2025 test at 96,248 miles, the vehicle covered 27,564 miles, representing a steady rate of use. The lack of significant mileage gaps or sudden spikes suggests the car has not been subject to long periods of inactivity, which often leads to degradation of rubber components and internal corrosion in brake calipers. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the front braking system to ensure the discs and pads have actually been replaced as noted in the 2025 record. Given the previous years of clean tests, the focus should also shift to suspension components, specifically the bushes and shock absorbers, which often begin to fail near the 100,000-mile mark. There is no history of structural corrosion or exhaust issues in the data, but checking the underside for surface rust remains a standard precaution for a Peugeot of this age.
