2008 Peugeot 307 1.6L Petrol · MH08 ACH

The 2025‑04‑25 MOT resulted in a pass, but the record shows multiple advisories – worn front suspension arm pin/bush, extensive corrosion of all suspension parts, and a minor central rear exhaust leak – indicating that the vehicle is roadworthy only with due attention to these items and that the maintenance trend is worsening rather than stable. Mileage has risen from 80,110 miles in the April 2023 test to 90,937 miles in the April 2025 test, a gain of roughly 10,827 miles over two years or about 5,400 miles per year, which aligns with the vehicle’s low annual usage of 5,052 miles per year since its 2008 manufacture; the incremental increase is steady and there are no extended periods of zero mileage, suggesting consistent but light use. Recurring faults such as persistent suspension arm wear, continuous corrosion of chassis sills, track‑rod end ball joint play, and steering rack inner joint play appear in every test from 2021 onward, while earlier records show only isolated issues like tyre wear or wiper defects; this pattern points to inadequate rust protection and a lack of timely replacement of worn suspension components, which are serious mechanical concerns rather than routine consumable wear. A buyer should therefore inspect the front suspension arm bushings and pins for excessive movement, examine the condition of the chassis sills and other structural members for deep rust, verify that the exhaust system is sound and free of leaks, check the steering rack and track‑rod ends for play, assess the wear of brake discs and pads, and confirm that tyre tread meets the 1.6 mm legal minimum.
