2008 Peugeot 308 1.6L Diesel · MM52 ANN

The current roadworthiness status of this Peugeot 308 is excellent, with the vehicle maintaining a clean pass record for the past five years. The most recent MOT on 7 November 2025 at 39,643 miles confirms the car is in a stable condition, as the tester recorded no defects or advisories. This consistent lack of failures or warnings suggests that the vehicle has been subjected to diligent maintenance and responsible ownership during the recent half-decade. The low total mileage of 39,643 miles over an eighteen-year lifespan indicates an average of approximately 2,200 miles per annum, which is significantly below the national average. The data shows a steady, incremental usage pattern, with the vehicle covering roughly 3,348 miles between August 2021 and November 2025. This consistent, low-intensity use suggests the car has not suffered from the heavy mechanical strain associated with high-mileage commuting, though it does raise the possibility of extended periods of inactivity. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components prone to degradation during long periods of standing, specifically the rubber suspension bushes, brake hoses, and tyre sidewalls. While the MOT history is clean, the age of the vehicle means that non-structural components like coolant hoses and auxiliary drive belts may be nearing the end of their service life regardless of the low mileage. Check the underside for surface corrosion on the subframes and exhaust system, as age-related oxidation can occur even in vehicles that are rarely driven. Provided the engine oil and coolant levels appear healthy, the mechanical history points to a well-preserved example of this model.
