2005 Peugeot 307 1.6L Petrol · KB05 KUG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having maintained a passing record over the last four years. The most recent test on 6 March 2025 at 162,860 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a failure just two days prior at the same mileage. This anomalous failure suggests an administrative error or a minor issue that was rectified immediately before the re-test, as no specific defects were listed in the record to justify a double-pass scenario. At 162,860 miles over 21 years, the Peugeot averages approximately 7,755 miles per year. This usage pattern aligns with typical national averages for a vehicle of this age. The data shows consistent, incremental mileage between 2022 and 2025, with annual increases ranging between 2,900 and 3,200 miles. This steady usage suggests the car has not been subjected to extreme stress or long periods of sitting stationary, which often leads to the accelerated degradation of rubber components and fluid systems. While the MOT history is clean of advisories and mechanical failures, a buyer must conduct a physical inspection of common failure points for the 307 model. Given the age and mileage, prioritize the structural integrity of the rear wheel arches and sills where corrosion is known to manifest. You should also verify the condition of the suspension bushes and front wish arm bolts, as these often wear without triggering an MOT failure until they reach a critical state. The lack of recorded brake advisories suggests the calipers and discs are currently in good condition, but a check for binding or thinning remains necessary for a vehicle of this mileage.
