2010 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · DY10 JXT

The Peugeot 107 presents a stable roadworthiness record over the past three years, with the most recent MOT in May 2025 at 121,719 miles passing without any defects. This consistency extends back to February 2022, where the vehicle also passed with no issues at 94,990 miles. The only anomaly is the duplicate test date in May 2023, where the car failed initially at 97,008 miles before passing at 97,012 miles—though neither test recorded defects, suggesting a minor administrative or procedural irregularity rather than a mechanical problem. The absence of advisories or failures in recent years implies that routine maintenance has been addressed, at least to the standards required for MOT compliance. The mileage accumulation aligns closely with typical usage for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging around 7,607 miles per year. There are no sudden spikes or prolonged gaps that would indicate neglect or unusually heavy use. The most recent MOT in May 2025 confirms the odometer reading at 121,719 miles, meaning the car has covered roughly 11,873 miles since then—less than a year’s worth of average driving. This suggests the vehicle has either been in low-mileage use or stored for extended periods, which could mean some components may not have been fully exercised. However, the lack of defects in the latest tests mitigates concerns about deferred maintenance. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should still prioritise a thorough inspection of high-wear areas that may not have been scrutinised beyond basic compliance checks. Pay particular attention to the suspension—specifically the condition of the front lower arm bushes, rear shock absorbers, and coil springs, as these are common failure points on this model and may not always be flagged unless visibly degraded. The braking system should be checked for uneven wear on discs or pads, as binding calipers or seized components can go unnoticed in a passing MOT. Structural integrity is less of a concern given the absence of corrosion advisories, but a close look at the sills, wheel arches, and underbody for surface rust or weakened sections is prudent. Finally, verify that all fluid levels—brake, coolant, and power steering—are topped up, as these are not part of the MOT test but critical to long-term reliability.
