2018 Peugeot 308 1.2L Petrol · L7 VRP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in April 2025 at 47,430 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record indicates a shift from mechanical failures to minor consumable wear. While the 2022 failure regarding a worn anti-roll bar linkage was rectified, more recent tests show no major mechanical defects, suggesting that the primary suspension components were addressed when issues first arose. At eight years old, the recorded mileage of 47,430 miles represents an average of approximately 5,900 miles per year. This low-usage profile typically places less strain on the engine and drivetrain compared to high-mileage vehicles. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 3,500 miles covered between the 2024 and 2025 tests. However, such low annual mileage can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components due to age rather than mechanical wear. A physical inspection should focus on the condition of the tyres and the braking system. The 2024 and 2025 tests both flagged cracking or perishing on the rear tyres, which is a common symptom of low-mileage vehicles sitting for extended periods. A buyer should verify that the current tyres are not showing signs of sidewall cracking. Additionally, the 2024 advisory regarding worn rear brake discs warrants a check of disc thickness and the presence of pitting to ensure they have not reached the limit of service life since the last report.
