Our Verdict
This 2012 Peugeot 207 Blue 1.4 petrol is a reasonable budget buy with a clean MOT pass record, but the recent corrosion and tyre wear advisories mean you should budget for near-term maintenance. Inspect the sub-frame and tyres closely before committing, and use the advisories to negotiate a fair price.
Before buying LS12ABX, ask for full service history to confirm the 1.4 litre petrol engine and suspension components have been maintained, as the MOT history shows recurring surface corrosion and anti-roll bar play from 2020. Use the 2024 advisories — front sub-frame corrosion and offside rear tyre worn on edge — as leverage to negotiate a discount of a few hundred pounds or request the seller replaces the tyre first. Given the 2012 registration and 1360cc engine, this is a straightforward small hatchback, but verify the discoloured rear indicators are legal and not a sign of neglected electrics.

Common Problems: PEUGEOT 207
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Electric Power Steering (EPAS) Column Failure(Serious)
The EPAS column is the single biggest reliability concern on the 207. It can fail without warning, causing sudden heavy steering. Some cars have had multiple column replacements under warranty.
- VTi Timing Chain Stretch (Prince Engine)(Serious)
The 1.4 VTi and 1.6 VTi Prince engines suffer from timing chain stretch and tensioner failure, leading to chain rattle on cold start, rough running and potentially catastrophic engine damage if the chain jumps.
- EGR Valve Sticking (1.6 HDi)(Moderate)
The exhaust gas recirculation valve on the 1.6 HDi diesel can stick open or closed, causing rough idle, poor performance and excessive emissions. Carbon build-up is the main cause.
- DPF Clogging (1.6 HDi Short Trips)(Moderate)
The diesel particulate filter on the 1.6 HDi clogs quickly on short urban journeys, triggering limp mode, excessive fuel consumption and eventually requiring forced regeneration or removal.
