2006 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · EO06 GOC

The Peugeot 107’s most recent MOT test on 2026-01-30—just six months ago—confirms a clean pass with no defects recorded, despite an unusual dual entry (one pass, one fail) at the same mileage. This anomaly suggests either a rare administrative error or a temporary hold-up in processing, but no mechanical issues were flagged. The preceding tests from 2025 and 2024 also passed without failings, indicating a stable roadworthiness trend over the past two years. However, the lack of advisories or minor faults in any of these records means there is no historical evidence of recurring wear patterns in suspension bushes, coil springs, or binding calipers that might warrant immediate concern. That said, the absence of advisories could also imply that even minor issues were overlooked or repaired privately. The vehicle’s recorded mileage of 44,911 miles over 20 years—roughly 2,246 miles annually—is unusually low for its age, suggesting either very light usage or prolonged periods of inactivity. The gaps between tests are consistent, with roughly 2,500 miles accrued between each MOT, which aligns with the low annual average. There is no evidence of rapid mileage accumulation or abrupt changes in usage patterns, though the low total miles could mean some components—such as brake pads or timing belt (if applicable)—may have been replaced less frequently than recommended. The lack of mileage spikes also raises the possibility of extended storage, which could accelerate issues like corrosion in suspension components or degraded fuel system integrity. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of high-wear items not typically tested under MOT standards. Focus on the suspension’s rubber bushes and coil springs for cracking or excessive play, particularly around the front struts and rear trailing arms, as these are prone to deterioration even with low mileage. Check the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or signs of binding, especially if the vehicle has spent time stationary, as moisture can accelerate corrosion. Examine the exhaust system for leaks or rust penetration, particularly at joints and underpinnings, and inspect the underbody for corrosion around wheel arches and sills—common failure points in older vehicles. Finally, verify the condition of the timing belt (if this engine variant uses one) and associated water pump, as these are critical but not MOT-tested components; failure here can lead to catastrophic engine damage. The absence of advisories in past tests makes these areas all the more critical to assess independently.
