2006 Peugeot 1007 1.6L Petrol · CM03 ADE

The most recent MOT on 2025-09-23 recorded two tyre-related defects, with both offside front and nearside rear tyres showing slight damage or perishing. A separate issue was noted with the offside front track rod end ball joint, which had slight play. These findings suggest aging components, particularly the tyres, which may have deteriorated due to time rather than heavy use. The vehicle’s low mileage of 60,032 miles (around 3,002 miles per year) indicates it has likely seen minimal active use, which could lead to rubber components perishing while other systems remain relatively untouched. The MOT history shows a mix of clean results and isolated issues. From 2022 to 2024, the vehicle passed without defects, but a 2023 failure highlighted a door mechanism problem (front driver’s door likely to open inadvertently). This defect was not repeated in later tests, suggesting it may have been repaired. The 2025 defects, however, introduce new concerns about tyre condition and steering components. While no major safety risks were recorded in the latest test, the combination of aging tyres and a steering joint with play warrants attention. The trend in defects appears stable overall, with no recurring or escalating issues.
