2011 Peugeot 207 1.6L Petrol · CP61 AEG

The vehicle is recorded as roadworthy, having passed the 25 June 2026 MOT at 57,519 miles. The pass follows a failure on 22 June 2026 at the same mileage, which highlighted excessive play in the off‑side front track‑rod end, worn rear brake discs and a split constant‑velocity boot on the off‑side front drive‑shaft. The recent pass shows that the most critical safety items – brake discs, tyre tread and headlamp aim – were brought within legal limits, yet the recurring front exhaust mounting defect and persistent suspension‑component sealing indicate a mixed maintenance trend: improvements in some wear items, but ongoing minor structural concerns. Across fifteen years the odometer reads 57,519 miles, averaging roughly 3,800 miles per year – well below the typical usage for a 2011 model. Mileage increments between tests are modest (e.g., 56,794 miles in March 2026 to 57,519 miles by June 2026), suggesting limited annual exposure and no evidence of rapid accumulation. The low mileage reduces the likelihood of accelerated wear on major drivetrain components, but the pattern of intermittent failures points to periods of neglect rather than high‑stress operation. A prospective buyer should focus on the front exhaust mounting, which has been flagged as defective in every MOT since March 2024 and remains unaddressed. The off‑side front CV boot, split on both the 11 March 2026 and 22 June 2026 tests, requires inspection for dirt ingress and possible grease loss. Suspension bushings – notably the near‑side front track‑rod end, which showed excessive play in March 2026 – should be examined for wear and replaced if movement exceeds specification. Brake discs, especially the near‑side rear disc noted as “significantly and obviously worn” on 22 June 2026, merit measurement for thickness and surface condition; pads were below 1.5 mm on several occasions and may need replacement. Tyre edges approaching the legal limit and a previous front‑tyre bulge demand a thorough tread and sidewall check. Finally, corrosion on the front sub‑frame, rear axle, coil springs and cross‑member, repeatedly recorded as present but not structurally weakened, should be probed for any progression that could compromise structural integrity.
