Our Verdict
This Peugeot 308 2.0 diesel presents a r
Given the exceptionally low annual mileage of roughly 3,300 miles per year, it is worth checking whether this vehicle has had long periods of inactivity, which can cause issues such as dried seals, perished belts, and flat-spotted tyres. Ask the seller for evidence of regular running and any storage arrangements, and confirm whether the cam belt and water pump have been replaced at the recommended interval (typically every 5-6 years or 80,000-100,000 miles for the 2.0 HDi). Diesel 308s of this era are known for EGR valve and turbo wear at higher mileages, so although this car is low-mileage, a compression test and boost pressure check would be sensible precautions. A pre-purchase inspection by an independent garage familiar with Peugeot diesels is strongly advised, particularly to check for oil consumption and DPF condition, as short journeys can clog the diesel particulate filter over time.
The 2.0-litre HDi diesel engine typically returns 45-50 mpg on a mix of motorway and town use, though the very low recorded mileage suggests this particular car may be used mainly for short journeys, which will suppress real-world economy. Road tax for a 1997cc diesel of this age falls in a higher band than the more popular 1.6 HDi, and combined with London's ULEZ and other Clean Air Zone charges, this should be factored into ownership costs. Insurance for a 2009 Peugeot 308 diesel typically sits in groups 18-22 depending on trim, making it moderately priced to insure. Budget around £800-£1,000 annually for fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance such as tyres, brakes, and oil changes.
Although the MOT history is clean, buyers should pay close attention to the items that most commonly cause failures on the 308 model overall — namely headlamp condition (lens clouding and bulb failures), tyre wear across all four wheels, and exhaust system integrity including the DPF and rear silencer. On the 2.0 HDi specifically, inspect the turbocharger for excessive play, check for blue smoke on start-up indicating oil burning, and examine the underside for oil leaks around the sump and rocker cover gasket. The clutch and dual-mass flywheel are known wear items on higher-torque diesel 308s, so a careful test drive engaging each gear under load is essential. Finally, verify all electrical functions including the central locking, electric windows, and air conditioning, as HVAC repairs on this generation can be costly.
This silver 2.0-litre diesel Peugeot 308, first registered in November 2009, has recorded five consecutive MOT passes with no defects or advisories noted on any test between October 2022 and May 2026. The vehicle has covered just 56,394 miles over approximately 17 years, equating to around 3,300 miles annually — well below both the model average of 7,245 miles per year and the typical UK driving distance. The 2.0 HDi diesel variant offers reasonable pulling power but sits in a higher tax bracket than the smaller 1.6 HDi versions.
The Peugeot 308 has a model-wide MOT pass rate of 76.6% across over 156,000 vehicles tested, placing it broadly in line with competitors in the family hatchback class. The most frequently recorded failure points — headlamps, tyres, and exhaust components — are common across all vehicles of this age rather than model-specific defects.

- 1.6 THP timing-chain stretchSerious
Prince engine chain and carbon issues.
- DPF Clogging on HDi DieselsModerate
The 1.6 HDi and 2.0 HDi diesels are prone to diesel particulate filter clogging, especially on short urban trips. A blocked DPF triggers limp mode, excessive fuel consumption and can eventually damage the turbo.
- Flywheel (DMF) Vibration and WearModerate
The dual-mass flywheel on diesel models can develop excessive play, causing vibration at idle, judder during take-off and a rattling noise. Replacement is expensive as the clutch must come off at the same time.
