2008 Peugeot 207 1.6L Diesel · CY58 EBG

The Peugeot 207 presents a broadly roadworthy status as of the most recent test on 26 April 2025, where it passed at 124,711 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend reads as stable on paper, though the prior test on 6 November 2024 produced a failure at 124,709 miles with no defects logged, indicating an administrative or non-mechanical refusal rather than a component fault. Across the four available records from February 2023 to April 2025, the vehicle cleared three tests and showed no advisories or worn-item flags at any stage. Annual mileage sits close to the typical 6,928 per year for an 18-year-old car, with the record showing 122,002 miles in February 2023, 123,350 in November 2023, 124,709 in November 2024, and 124,711 by April 2025. The near-static 2-mile gap between the November 2024 failure and the April 2025 pass suggests the car stood largely unused over that winter. Sparse history with clean outcomes gives little evidence of neglected consumables, yet the lack of advisory notes across ageing suspension and brake parts is unusual for a 2008 hatch at this mileage and may reflect light testing scrutiny rather than perfect condition. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and the unexplained November 2024 failure. The tester recorded no corrosion or structural integrity issues, but Peugeot 207 sills and subframes commonly rot by this point and the MOT file offers no reassurance on that front. Verify the reason for the 2024 failure with DVSA before purchase, as the zero-defect record provides no clue whether it concerned paperwork, lighting, or a withdrawn test.
