2009 Peugeot 308 1.6L Diesel · ML59 PYY

The vehicle currently presents a roadworthy profile with a stable maintenance trend following a period of inconsistency. The most recent inspection conducted in December 2025 at 132,569 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows two consecutive clean tests in late 2024 and early 2024, indicating that the vehicle has maintained a high standard of presentation since a single failure in late 2023. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,800 miles per year. The data shows steady usage with short intervals, such as the 623 miles covered between the February 2024 and December 2024 tests, and another 669 miles between December 2024 and December 2025. This suggests the car is used for short trips, which typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain but can occasionally lead to carbon buildup or degradation of rubber components and exhaust systems. While the recent history is clean, the buyer must investigate the specific cause of the failure in December 2023 at 131,277 miles, as the record does not specify the mechanical fault. Given the age of this Peugeot 308, a physical inspection should focus on structural corrosion in the rear sills and wheel arches, which are common failure points for this model. Additionally, check the condition of the suspension bushes and shock absorbers, as the low annual mileage often masks perished rubber that occurs over time despite low physical wear.
