Our Verdict
Proceed with caution – the vehicle shows a pattern of recurring MOT failures and high mileage, which raises reliability concerns.
When inspecting this van, focus on the condition of the parking brake system and the front and rear tyre wear, as recent MOTs (2023) flagged a dangerous near‑side front tyre with exposed ply and multiple tyre damage advisories. Verify that any brake disc or pad wear has been addressed and that the parking brake now operates correctly. Request a full service history, paying particular attention to any work done on the track rod end ball joints, which have shown repeated excessive play since 2016. Negotiating a price reduction to cover the likely cost of new tyres, brake components, and possible suspension work would be prudent. Consider a professional pre‑purchase inspection to confirm the integrity of the exhaust system, which was flagged as insecure in 2018, and to ensure the parking brake is fully functional.
The 2.0‑litre diesel engine in the 807 typically delivers around 35‑40 mpg, making fuel costs moderate for a vehicle of its size. It falls into the UK CO₂ tax band for diesel vans of this vintage, attracting an annual road tax of approximately £250. Insurance groups for a 2007 807 are usually in the mid‑range (group 15‑20), leading to yearly premiums of £600‑£800 depending on driver profile. Given the age and mileage, routine maintenance – including tyre replacement, brake servicing, and suspension repairs – can add another £300‑£500 per year. Overall, expect an annual running cost in the region of £1,200‑£1,500.
Pay particular attention to the parking brake mechanism; the 2023 MOT recorded a dangerous failure (off‑side parking brake inoperative) and multiple major failures in previous years, indicating a persistent problem. Inspect the track rod end ball joints on both sides – excessive play was noted in 2016, 2020, and 2022 – as worn joints can lead to steering imprecision and further suspension wear. Examine all four tyres for cracking, damage, or tread depth below the legal limit, as recent advisories highlighted near‑side front tyre ply exposure and side‑wall cracking. Finally, check the exhaust mounting and stop lamps, which were flagged as insecure and non‑functional in 2018, to avoid costly rectifications.
The 2007 Peugeot 807 diesel has accumulated 145,647 miles and carries a mixed MOT record, with several major failures related to the parking brake, track rod end ball joints, and tyres over the past six years. While the engine and core structure have passed most tests, the recurring suspension and brake issues suggest the need for imminent repairs. Value for money is limited unless the price reflects the anticipated maintenance costs.
No specific aggregate reliability data is available for the Peugeot 807, but the vehicle's MOT record suggests typical ageing issues with brakes, suspension, and tyres for a high‑mileage diesel van of this era.
