2015 Peugeot 308 2.0L Diesel · KJ15 OSC

The 2015 Peugeot 308 has maintained a consistent MOT pass record with no defects recorded across all five tests, most recently passing on 6 October 2025. This suggests the vehicle has undergone regular, compliant testing without any major failings, though the absence of advisories or defects does not preclude underlying wear beyond MOT scope. The most recent test occurred just under ten months ago, placing it within the acceptable window for roadworthiness under current DVSA guidelines. No recurring issues have been logged, which implies either diligent servicing or that problems have been addressed privately before testing. The recorded mileage of 81,598 miles reflects a steady usage pattern of approximately 7,400 miles annually, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. There are no significant gaps in testing that would indicate prolonged neglect, though the most recent MOT-to-MOT interval—just over a year—is slightly shorter than the standard 12-month cycle. This could imply either proactive maintenance scheduling or a preference for earlier testing, but it does not raise concerns about deferred servicing. The lack of mid-cycle tests also means there is no evidence of emergency repairs or extended periods off the road. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of high-wear components not covered by the test. The suspension—particularly rear bushes and coil springs—should be checked for excessive play or corrosion, as these are common failure points in this model range. Brake systems warrant close attention, including caliper binding, uneven pad wear, and disc thickness, especially if the vehicle has been driven hard or in mixed conditions. Structural integrity, particularly around wheel arches and sills, should be examined for signs of rust penetration, as this model is prone to corrosion in wet climates. Finally, the exhaust system and catalytic converter should be inspected for leaks or damage, as these are frequently overlooked but critical for emissions compliance.
