Peugeot 306 LX (2000)
2000 Peugeot 306 LX
CarHunch is tracking 293 2000 Peugeot 306 LX vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
**This 2000 Peugeot 306 LX is in dire condition on the used market — just 1.8% pass MOT on first attempt versus the UK average of 80%, with petrol variants showing a 0% pass rate entirely.** No vehicles in this cohort have recorded dangerous defects, which is the only silver lining, but the near-total failure rate makes this a deeply unreliable buy regardless.
At an average mileage of 123,000 miles for a 24-year-old car, these examples are heavily worn; the vanishingly low pass rate combined with zero recorded advisories suggests many are being withdrawn from testing or scrapped before returning for retests. If you're seriously considering a 306 LX from this era, budget heavily for immediate work — suspension, brakes, and exhaust components are almost certainly failing — and get a pre-purchase inspection from a specialist before committing any money.
We have 293 2000 Peugeot 306 LX vehicles on record but don't have enough MOT test data to show reliable statistics for this cohort.
What to check before buying a 2000 Peugeot 306 LX
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
