2011 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · E11 CAA

The vehicle shows a history of recurring mechanical and structural issues that suggest a reactive maintenance approach. In the most recent test on 7 November 2025 at 101,619 miles, the car passed after failing on a dangerously worn offside front tyre with exposed cords and an inoperative nearside rear registration lamp. Significant corrosion on the rear sub-frame and worn anti-roll bar linkage bushes were noted as advisories, indicating that structural oxidation is progressing. While the sub-frame is not yet seriously weakened, the presence of corrosion on a vehicle of this age is a significant factor that requires close monitoring to prevent future structural failure. With 101,619 miles over 15 years, the car averages approximately 6,775 miles per year, which is consistent with typical light-city use. However, the record reveals a pattern of neglecting basic fluid checks. During the November 2024 test at 97,540 miles, the vehicle failed due to oil and coolant levels being at the minimum, alongside a defective exhaust mounting and a bald inner tread. The repeated failures regarding the offside front tyre across multiple years suggest that consumables are often only replaced once they reach the legal limit or fail an inspection, rather than on a preventative schedule. The suspension and braking components show signs of age. The nearside rear wheel bearing was flagged as noisy in 2024, and the front anti-roll bar bushes were found to be perished by 2025. The exhaust system is also degrading, with a defective mounting noted in 2024 becoming a broken bracket by 2025. A buyer should inspect the rear sub-frame for deeper structural rot and ensure the exhaust is fully secured, as these areas indicate an ongoing trend of wear and environmental damage.
