2013 Peugeot 308 1.6L Diesel · SC13 XUW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a clean pass in its most recent inspection. The test conducted on 10 June 2025 at 145,155 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that any issues identified in previous years have been successfully rectified. While the car suffered a failure in June 2024, the immediate re-test on the same day suggests the owner was proactive in addressing necessary repairs to maintain legal road use status. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per annum. The record shows steady accumulation, moving from 115,539 miles in June 2022 to 145,155 miles in June 2025. This regular use suggests the vehicle has not been left to sit for long periods, which is generally beneficial for seals and mechanical components, though the high total mileage places significant expected wear on the drivetrain and age-related suspension components. Despite the clean history of recent tests, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components common to high-mileage Peugeot 308 models. Given the 145,155-mile mark, verify the condition of the wish arm bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue or tearing. You should also check for early stage corrosion on the rear sills and exhaust system, as the MOT does not always flag surface-level rust until it reaches a structural failure threshold.
