2006 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · EY56 HXW

Recurring issues with lighting, visibility, and wheel integrity define the mechanical profile of this Peugeot 107, as evidenced by the most recent pass on 30 August 2025. While the vehicle passed its latest inspection, the record shows a persistent trend of advisories regarding inoperative lighting, such as the rear reverse lamp, and repeated concerns regarding wheel distortion. The history also indicates intermittent failures related to windscreen wipers, horn operation, and headlamp aim, suggesting that while the vehicle remains roadworthy, it has frequently required attention to peripheral electrical and visibility components. The recorded mileage of 99,453 miles over approximately twenty years equates to an average annual usage of roughly 4,973 miles. This represents a low-mileage usage pattern for a vehicle of this age. Mechanically, such low annual accumulation can sometimes correlate with longer periods of inactivity, which may impact rubber components and seals, though the MOT record specifically highlights wear on consumables like brake pads and tyres. The gaps in testing between 2021 and 2023 suggest periods where the vehicle was not subject to annual inspection, which is a factor to consider when evaluating the consistency of its mechanical state. A prospective buyer should pay close attention to the condition of the wheels, as multiple advisories from 2024 and 2025 specifically flag distortion on the offside front, offside rear, and nearside front road wheels. During a test drive, it is essential to monitor for any vibrations felt through the steering wheel or the seat, particularly at varying speeds, which could indicate the impact of these distorted rims. Furthermore, the repeated advisories regarding windscreen wipers and smearing suggest that the wiper motor or the blades themselves may require replacement to ensure effective visibility during adverse weather. The history of lighting failures, including headlamp aim issues and inoperative reversing lamps, necessitates a thorough check of all exterior bulbs and the electrical connections to the light clusters. Given the 2023 advisory regarding the supplementary restraint system warning lamp failing to illuminate, the functionality of the airbag system and its corresponding dashboard indicators must be verified to ensure the safety systems are operational. Finally, because front brake pads were noted as wearing thin in early 2024, the current thickness of the pads and the condition of the discs should be inspected to ensure they have been adequately addressed since the last recorded advisory.
