2010 Peugeot 308 1.6L Petrol · MM10 ABF

The 2010 Peugeot 308 demonstrates consistent roadworthiness, with all six MOT tests from 2021 to 2025 recording no defects. The most recent assessment on 2025-08-28 at 67,881 miles confirmed compliance, reflecting a stable maintenance trend. No recurring issues or advisories were flagged across the five-year history, suggesting the vehicle has been well-maintained. The absence of critical failures in brakes, suspension, or structural components indicates the previous owner prioritized regular servicing. The mileage of 67,881 miles over 16 years equates to approximately 4,243 annual miles, significantly below the UK average for this age. Annual MOT tests align with this low usage, with incremental mileage gains of 1,500–2,000 miles per year. The 2021-08-16 test at 55,305 miles to the 2025-08-28 test at 67,881 miles shows a steady, predictable pattern. This suggests the vehicle has likely been driven infrequently, potentially leading to dry joints or corrosion in components not regularly stressed, such as suspension bushes or brake calipers. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as low mileage can mask gradual degradation. The exhaust system merits scrutiny for corrosion, a common issue in older vehicles with limited use. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for binding or uneven wear, as static periods may cause seizing. While MOT records show no structural rust, a visual inspection of the chassis and underbody is advisable to confirm integrity. The vehicle’s maintenance history implies reliability but underscores the need for a thorough pre-purchase check beyond MOT data.
