2009 Peugeot 308 1.6L Diesel · KY59 RGZ

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful test on 25 June 2025 at 120,775 miles. While the most recent test showed no defects, the maintenance trend indicates a period of instability during the preceding year. The failure recorded in April 2025 at 120,361 miles followed by a second failure in June 2025 suggests that specific mechanical or emissions issues required rectification to bring the car back to passing standards. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,100 miles per year. Between October 2023 at 114,392 miles and June 2025 at 120,775 miles, the car covered 6,383 miles over twenty months. This suggests steady, light driving habits rather than high-intensity motorway use. However, the low annual mileage relative to the vehicle's age means age-related degradation of rubber components and seals remains a more likely concern regardless of the distance driven. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas that likely caused the 2025 failures, as the record provides no specific defect codes for those events. It is vital to check the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, which are common failure points on this model. Given the age of the Peugeot, inspect the structural integrity for corrosion on the rear sills and subframe. Additionally, examine the brake calipers for binding and the discs for excessive pitting, as the vehicle is approaching the end of the typical service life for many mechanical components.
