2009 Peugeot 308 1.6L Diesel · LL59 ACX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a history of clean passes over the last three years. Following the most recent test in February 2025 at 109,637 miles, the car passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the mechanical components currently meet regulatory standards. This clean streak follows a failure in August 2022, which was rectified quickly within just two days, suggesting that the previous owner addressed identified issues promptly and maintained a consistent inspection standard thereafter. At 17 years old, the Peugeot 308 shows a mileage consistent with its age, averaging approximately 6,450 miles per year. This low annual usage typically results in less wear on drivetrain components and interior plastics compared to higher mileage. The data shows steady usage patterns, with roughly 7,500 miles covered between February 2024 and February 2025, and another 7,300 miles between August 2023 and February 2024. This consistency suggests regular operation rather than long periods of standing which can often lead to component degradation. While the MOT record is clean, a 17-year-old vehicle requires a physical inspection focused on structural integrity and age-related wear. The buyer should specifically check for corrosion on the sills and wheel arches, which are common areas of concern for this model. Given the low mileage, inspecting the condition of rubber components such as suspension bushes and brake hoses is vital, as these can perish and crack over time regardless of distance driven. Additionally, verifying the brakes for binding calipers or uneven disc wear is advisable as the MOT does not always detect minor hydraulic issues until they reach a failure threshold.
