2014 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · DX14 XMM

The vehicle presents a mixed maintenance profile with a recent trend toward worsening suspension and tyre condition. While the May 2026 test at 40,073 miles resulted in a pass, the tester identified several advisories including a defective front windscreen wiper, a perishing nearside rear tyre, and worn rear bushes on both offside and nearside front suspension components. This follows a period of instability between 2023 and 2025 where the car failed tests due to inoperative hazard switches and worn anti-roll bar linkages. The mileage history shows a consistent but low-use pattern, averaging roughly 3,300 miles per year. A significant jump occurred between May 2022 and May 2023, where the mileage increased from 26,343 to 35,350. Since that period, the vehicle has maintained a steady, low-mileage trajectory. This low annual usage explains the presence of perishing rubber components and tyre cracking noted in the most recent 2026 inspection, as tyres often degrade from age and lack of movement rather than tread wear alone. A buyer must scrutinise the braking system and suspension integrity during a physical inspection. The offside rear brake pipe has been flagged for corrosion in nearly every MOT since May 2022, suggesting that while it may have been addressed or treated, the underlying issue of corrosion in the braking lines remains a recurring theme. The progression from worn brake discs in 2023 to worn suspension bushes in 2026 indicates that the vehicle's running gear is beginning to require more frequent component replacement. The recurring advisories regarding suspension bushes and tyre degradation suggest the car has spent significant time stationary. You should check the condition of all rubber seals, suspension bushings, and tyre sidewalls for signs of age-related cracking. Inspect the offside rear brake pipe area specifically to ensure any previous repairs or cleaning have effectively managed the corrosion noted over the last four years.
