Known faults for Peugeot 207
Our database tracks 5 specific mechanical faults and recurring failure patterns identified across UK MOT testing stations for this generation.
MOT Roadworthiness: Good
This rating reflects historical MOT pass rates and recurring advisory wear patterns from official DVSA test logs. Note that roadworthiness does not verify outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen records.

Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and a thorough mechanical inspection. While the recent MOT pass is positive, the history of recurring oil leaks and suspension wear requires careful scrutiny.
Before committing to a purchase, you should request a detailed service history to see how the recurring oil leaks noted in 2022, 2023, and 2024 have been addressed. Specifically, ask if the source of the offside front oil leak was identified and repaired, as repeated advisories on this point can indicate a persistent gasket or seal issue.
Negotiate based on the recent maintenance required; the vehicle failed in November 2025 due to worn front inner brake discs and an offside front anti-roll bar ball joint. Ensure these specific parts were replaced with high-quality components. Check that the suspension feels tight during a test drive, as ball joint wear has been a recurring theme in this car's MOT record.
The 1.4L petrol engine is generally positioned in a lower insurance group, making it relatively affordable for younger drivers. Fuel economy for this engine size is typically modest, suitable for urban and suburban driving rather than long-distance motorway commuting.
Maintenance costs for a Peugeot 207 of this age often involve routine replacement of suspension components and braking systems, both of which have appeared in this vehicle's history. Expect an annual running cost that accounts for regular servicing and the potential for minor repairs to wear-and-tear items.
Pay close attention to the front suspension area. Given the MOT failures for anti-roll bar ball joints and suspension rod ball joints, you should inspect the rubber boots for tears and check for any knocking sounds when driving over uneven surfaces.
Additionally, look closely at the engine bay for any signs of fresh oil residue, particularly around the offside front area, to verify if the oil leaks mentioned in the 2022, 2023, and 2024 MOT tests have been fully resolved. Finally, verify the condition of the brake discs and pads, as the 2025 failure indicates the front braking system has recently required significant attention.
This 2010 Blue Peugeot 207 has covered 59,184 miles, which is slightly above the model average of 5,207 miles per year. The MOT history shows a pattern of minor suspension issues and recurring oil leaks between 2022 and 2024. Although it passed its most recent test in November 2025 with no defects, the previous failure regarding brake discs and ball joints suggests components are reaching the end of their service life.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 70.9% average MOT pass rate across 190,327 vehicles, suggesting common points of failure in testing.

Historical fault & advisory patterns
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.
