2008 Peugeot 207 1.6L Diesel · SG08 AAV

The current roadworthiness status of this Peugeot 207 is excellent, as the vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 5 March 2026 with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears highly stable, reflecting a consistent standard of care over the last three years. While the vehicle experienced brief failures in January 2024 and February 2025, these were resolved immediately within the same or subsequent days, suggesting that any minor issues encountered during the testing process were rectified promptly by the owner. The vehicle has covered 117,492 miles over its 18-year lifespan, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per annum. This usage pattern is consistent and suggests the car has been kept in regular operation rather than being left to deteriorate in storage. The mileage accumulation between the January 2024 test and the March 2026 test is steady, with roughly 6,000 miles added over that 26-month period, indicating light but consistent usage. Prospective buyers should note that the absence of advisories in the recent record is a positive indicator, yet it does not replace a physical inspection of age-related components. Given the vehicle age, you should prioritize checking the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and the structural integrity of the sills and subframes for signs of corrosion that may not have been flagged during the test. Inspect the brake discs and pads for surface oxidation or uneven wear, as these are common points of failure for vehicles that see lower annual mileage. Confirm that the timing belt has been replaced at the appropriate intervals, as this remains a critical maintenance item for this engine that is not captured by the MOT testing process.
