2009 Peugeot 207 1.6L Diesel · BD58 WAE

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 14 December 2023 at 69,194 miles, yet the tester flagged a severely deteriorated offside front anti‑roll bar ball joint dust cover (5.3.4 (b)(i)), indicating a suspension defect that must be remedied; overall the maintenance record shows a stable pattern with occasional recurring faults rather than a clear worsening trend. The 2009 Peugeot 207 is 17 years old and has accumulated 69,194 miles, averaging roughly 4,070 miles per year, a figure that is low for its age and suggests lighter use or extended periods of inactivity; mileage rose from 64,843 mi in November 2021 to 66,725 mi in November 2022, a gain of about 1,882 mi in one year, while earlier intervals show consistent annual increases of 3,000–4,000 mi with no major gaps, indicating regular usage and periodic testing. A buyer should inspect the front suspension bushes and coil springs for play or failure, given the recent ball joint dust cover deterioration, and examine the exhaust mounting brackets for corrosion or looseness, as these defects recurred in 2021 and 2022; repeated wheel distortion, tyre sidewall damage and a split CV joint boot also point to potential alignment, suspension or drivetrain issues that merit close scrutiny during a physical inspection.
