2021 Peugeot 308 1.5L Diesel · OU70 CZT

The vehicle maintains a clean bill of health following its most recent MOT on 17 April 2026 at 81,966 miles, where it passed without any recorded defects or advisories. This performance indicates a stable and well-maintained condition, particularly as the two preceding annual tests in 2025 and 2024 also concluded with clear passes. The absence of recurring mechanical or structural faults suggests that the vehicle has been subjected to consistent professional servicing rather than neglect. Accumulating 81,966 miles over five years results in an average of approximately 16,393 miles per annum, which sits well above the typical UK usage profile. This rapid mileage accumulation implies the car has spent significant time in motorway environments, which generally places less strain on clutch and braking components compared to urban stop-start driving. The consistent mileage increments between tests confirm the vehicle has remained in active, regular use without long periods of standing, which helps prevent issues like seized calipers or battery degradation. The single failure recorded on 24 January 2024 at 51,932 miles for a cut in the offside front tyre sidewall represents a standard consumable issue rather than a systemic mechanical failure. Since the fault was rectified immediately and the vehicle subsequently passed its test the following day, it does not point to a pattern of poor maintenance. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the current condition of the suspension bushes and shock absorbers, as the high mileage will have accelerated wear on these components. Checking the brake discs for scoring and the underside for any signs of road salt corrosion remains prudent, given the high annual usage recorded in the history.
