2021 Peugeot 308 1.5L Diesel · LR71 VST

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 16 October 2025 at 45,673 miles with no recorded defects, following a similarly clean test on 14 October 2024. This demonstrates a stable maintenance trend with no recurring mechanical or safety issues flagged by the official test over the documented period. Mileage accumulation between the two tests was 11,921 miles, which is higher than the approximate 9,135 miles per year average for this age. Overall usage remains typical for a five-year-old vehicle, but the MOT record is notably sparse, covering only the last two years. No data exists for the car’s first three years of life, limiting insight into its earliest maintenance and potential wear. A buyer should conduct a thorough in-person inspection focusing on consumable wear items. Examine the brake pads and discs for thickness and scoring, the tyres for tread depth and sidewall condition, and the wiper blades for effectiveness. Given the higher recent mileage, also inspect suspension components like bushes and coil springs for deterioration, and check the exhaust for leaks or corrosion. Verify the full service history to confirm regular oil changes and ancillary maintenance, as a clean MOT does not guarantee the absence of gradual wear or neglected servicing. Look specifically for any signs of corrosion around the sills and wheel arches, as structural rust can develop without triggering an immediate MOT failure.
