2014 Peugeot 308 1.6L Petrol · HN63 VRJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its recent history of clean MOT results. The most recent test on 29 January 2024 at 105,877 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that the car met minimum standards at that time. While the record shows initial failures in both 2023 and 2024, the immediate subsequent passes suggest the owner addressed any identified faults promptly before re-testing. The mileage pattern is consistent with a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,800 miles per year. Between the January 2022 test at 86,486 miles and the January 2023 test at 95,020 miles, the car covered roughly 8,500 miles. A further 10,857 miles were recorded before the January 2024 test. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for maintaining engine seals and preventing brake components from seizing. Despite the lack of recorded advisories, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on common wear points for a Peugeot 308 of this era. Given the mileage exceeds 100,000 miles, a close look at the suspension bushes and coil springs is necessary to check for perished rubber. One should also inspect the brake discs for uneven wear or thinning, as the MOT does not measure thickness unless it causes functional issues. Since the last MOT was conducted over two years ago, the vehicle is currently technically overdue, and a fresh inspection is required to ensure no new defects have developed since the January 2024 test.
