2013 Peugeot 308 1.6L Petrol · LL54 CYS

The vehicle currently has a roadworthiness status of failed based on the most recent MOT test conducted on 2025-12-12 at 59,968 miles. This failure was driven by multiple mechanical and safety concerns, including a fractured offside rear coil spring and worn rear brake pads. The maintenance trend shows a pattern of recurring issues, particularly concerning suspension components and brake wear, suggesting that basic preventative maintenance has been neglected over the last year. The recorded mileage of 59,969 miles for a 2013 model reflects relatively light usage, averaging approximately 4,613 miles per year. While this low mileage is generally positive for wear on the drivetrain, the history indicates specific areas of concern. The failure in 2024 highlighted a snapped exhaust mounting bracket and cracked front tyres, while the 2022 test noted the nearside rear tyre was worn close to the legal limit. This pattern suggests inconsistent attention to routine servicing and tyre replacement schedules. A buyer should focus a thorough inspection on the suspension system, specifically checking the offside rear coil spring and all associated mounting points for signs of fatigue or corrosion. The recurring brake pad wear points to a need for immediate attention to the braking system components. Furthermore, given the history of tyre issues, the condition of all four tyres and the alignment of the front wheel suspension should be assessed carefully to ensure structural integrity. The headlamp issues from the most recent test should also be investigated to confirm proper beam projection and secure fixing.
