Our Verdict
Highly recommended for buyers seeking a low-mileage hatchback. The exceptionally low mileage and clean most recent MOT suggest a vehicle that has been used significantly less than the average for its age.
When inspecting this specific vehicle, verify that the low mileage is consistent with the service history, as low-mileage cars can suffer from infrequent use if not driven regularly. Check for any signs of rubber rot on the tyres, which can occur on cars used only for short distances. Given the failures in 2023 and 2024, ask the owner what the specific issues were to ensure they were minor items like bulbs or tyres rather than mechanical faults.
Focus on the condition of the 1.2 engine, looking for any signs of oil consumption. Because the car has covered relatively few miles, ensure it has still been serviced annually rather than just on a mileage-based schedule to keep the fluids lubricated and components in good order.
The 1200cc engine is positioned for efficiency, likely falling into a lower insurance group and road tax band. You can expect competitive fuel economy, particularly in city driving, making it an economical choice for daily runs.
Typical maintenance costs are generally moderate for French hatchbacks. However, buyers should budget for annual servicing regardless of the low mileage. The estimated annual running cost is projected between £700 and £900, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance.
Review the MOT history regarding the failures at 17,738 and 23,256 miles. While the data provided does not list the specific reasons for these failures, common issues for this model include headlamp alignment, tyres, and drive shaft joints. Inspect the tyres for uneven wear which could indicate suspension issues or alignment problems.
Check the brake discs for pitting, as low-mileage cars that sit for long periods can develop surface corrosion. Inspect the interior for any wear that might contradict the 29,200-mile reading, specifically checking the driver seat bolster and pedal rubbers.
This 2017 Peugeot 308 presents a rare profile with just 29,200 miles over nine years, which is well below the average of approximately 65,000 miles for this period. While it has experienced two MOT failures, the most recent test in June 2025 showed no defects whatsoever. The 1200cc petrol engine is a fuel-efficient choice suitable for urban environments and shorter commutes.
The Peugeot 308 generally shows a decent pass rate across the fleet, though the 1.2 PureTech engines require strict adherence to oil service intervals to maintain reliability.
