2014 Peugeot 308 Active NAV Vers-N SW E-HDI 1.6L Diesel · YR14 XME

A sustained track record of roadworthiness characterizes this vehicle, with a history devoid of recorded advisories or defects. This stability is evidenced by the most recent pass on 27 June 2025, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a standard that consistently meets DVSA requirements without lingering mechanical concerns or recurring failures. The accumulated mileage of 127,196 miles is typical for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,600 miles per year. However, there is a notable absence of testing data between December 2022 and June 2025. This gap in the official record indicates a period where the vehicle was not presented for an MOT, which requires a thorough physical verification of all perishable components to ensure they have not degraded during a period of potential inactivity. Given the lack of specific MOT failures or advisories, the physical inspection should focus on validating the clean record against the high overall mileage. During a test drive, pay close attention to the suspension bushes and coil springs, listening for knocks or clunks when traversing uneven surfaces, as these are common wear points for this chassis at this mileage. Ensure the steering is precise and free from excessive play or pull, which would indicate wear in the rack or tie ends. Further attention should be paid to the drivetrain and braking system. Check for any pedal judder during deceleration, which could indicate warped brake discs, and ensure the clutch engagement is smooth without slipping under load. While the MOT history is clean, the high mileage means the condition of the engine mounts and the absence of oil misting around the seals should be verified visually to ensure the vehicle's mechanical integrity remains consistent with its testing record.
