2009 PEUGEOT 2071.4L Petrol

The 2009 Peugeot 207 passed its latest MOT on 8 December 2025 at 94,243 miles, confirming that it is presently roadworthy, yet the repeated appearance of the same faults across multiple tests shows a maintenance trend that is stable but concerning. At 17 years old, the vehicle has accumulated roughly 5,500 miles per year, a figure that is low for its age and suggests periods of limited use or extended standing, as evidenced by the steady increase from 74,190 miles in December 2022 to 94,243 miles in December 2025 without any anomalous spikes. A buyer should pay close attention to the recurring suspension and steering components: the near‑side front anti‑roll bar ball joint, off‑side front anti‑roll bar ball joint, and all suspension arm ball joints have shown severe dust‑cover deterioration and play since 2019, while the steering linkage has repeatedly fouled the track rod against the wheel rim, indicating possible wear that may affect handling. In addition, the drive shaft constant‑velocity boot shows severe deterioration and leaking grease in the two most recent tests, the front oil leak persists, and the off‑side rear wheel bearing shows slight play, so a thorough visual inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, tyre tread, and structural rust around the chassis is essential before purchase.
