2007 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · EN56 RPX

The 2007 Peugeot 107 presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 11 December 2025 at 52,537 miles with zero defects recorded. That result is significant. The vehicle failed its prior test on 26 July 2024 at 50,165 miles, yet passed just six days later on 1 August 2024 at 50,167 miles after the tester flagged the same underlying wear items as advisories rather than failures. The rectification of the rear fog lamp, registration plate lamp, and headlamp lens defects between those two tests indicates the previous owner addressed immediate fail points promptly. The advisories carried forward, however, tell a more nuanced story about how this car has been maintained between services. At roughly 2,765 miles per year over nineteen years, this is a notably low-mileage vehicle. The gap between the May 2023 test at 47,045 miles and the July 2024 test at 50,165 miles shows a jump of approximately 3,120 miles in fourteen months, which is modest but slightly above the annual average. The mileage then plateaued, recording 52,537 miles by December 2025, meaning only 2,372 miles were covered in the following seventeen months. This pattern suggests the car may have spent extended periods stationary, a condition that can accelerate rubber component perishing, brake disc surface corrosion, and fluid degradation despite low cumulative use. The sparse MOT record, with only five tests spanning four years, limits the granularity of wear analysis, but the available data is consistent and shows no evidence of mileage anomalies or rollback. A buyer inspecting this vehicle in person should focus on the components that have appeared repeatedly across multiple tests. Both rear tyres were flagged for cracking and perishing in May 2023 and again in July 2024, suggesting either replacement with similarly aged rubber or prolonged exposure to UV and standing conditions. The anti-roll bar linkage bushes on both the nearside front and offside rear were noted as cracked in 2024, and the front brake discs were flagged for surface corrosion and pitting in the same test. These are not catastrophic defects, but they point to a car that has aged in place rather than being actively driven and maintained to a high standard. The water pump coolant leak and crankcase side cover oil leak recorded in 2024 also warrant close inspection, as even minor seepage can escalate if left unattended. Given the clean December 2025 result, the immediate roadworthiness risk is low, but the advisory history suggests a vehicle that has tolerated deferred attention to wear items rather than benefiting from proactive replacement. A thorough test drive over varied road surfaces, combined with a close visual check of the underside for fresh corrosion or weeping seals, would be a prudent next step.
