2021 Peugeot 308 1.5L Diesel · PX71 AFK

The vehicle presents a stable level of roadworthiness, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 30 March 2026 at 88,670 miles where the tester recorded no defects whatsoever. This follows a similarly clean result from October 2024, suggesting that the car is currently being maintained to a standard that avoids immediate mechanical failure or safety lapses during the annual testing process. The mileage profile is high for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 17,700 miles per annum. Between the October 2024 and March 2026 tests, the car covered 3,473 miles in just five months, a rapid rate of accumulation indicating consistent long-distance use, likely motorway-heavy. While high mileage often results in less urban clutch wear, it places significant demand on drivetrain and suspension components compared to lower-mileage examples. Given the high mileage and the clean MOT history, a buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of components most susceptible to high-frequency wear. Focus on the suspension geometry, control arm bushes, and coil springs for signs of premature fatigue or perished rubber. The braking system should be checked for uneven pad wear and scored brake discs, as the high usage rate can lead to thermal stress and binding calipers over time.
