2011 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · FH11 AUN

A history of corrosion affecting the braking system and intermittent electrical faults defines the mechanical record of this vehicle. While it achieved a pass on 4 February 2026, this was only after a failure necessitated the repair of a position lamp and the hazard warning switch. The record indicates a period of instability between 2020 and 2022, where corrosion on the offside rear brake pipe progressed from an advisory to a major failure, though the tests in 2024 and 2025 were recorded without defects. The recorded mileage of 62,422 miles is low for a fifteen year old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,161 miles per year. This usage pattern suggests the vehicle has spent significant time stationary or has been used for short-distance journeys. Mechanically, such low accumulation often results in reduced wear on the engine and gearbox, but it can increase the risk of corrosion on exposed metal components and the degradation of rubber seals, which aligns with the previously recorded brake pipe failures. Attention should be directed toward the braking system and engine oil consumption. The DVSA records show a recurring need for engine oil top-ups in 2020 and 2022, alongside a recommendation for a rear brake service. During a physical inspection, the offside rear brake pipe should be examined for any signs of renewed corrosion or poor-quality repairs. On a test drive, the buyer should feel for any unevenness in brake pedal pressure or a lack of response from the rear brakes, which would indicate binding calipers or worn linings. Electrical functionality must be verified, specifically the hazard warning system and all external lighting, given the failures recorded in early 2026. The buyer should also check the engine oil level via the dipstick to determine if the oil consumption noted in previous years remains a factor. Any unusual knocks or vibrations during low-speed maneuvers should be noted, as low-mileage vehicles can sometimes exhibit stiffness in suspension bushes or steering components due to prolonged inactivity.
