2009 Peugeot 207 1.4L Petrol · FN59 JHX

The 2009 Peugeot 207 presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 13 January 2026 at 141,236 miles recording no defects. Prior to this, the vehicle cleared the 7 January 2025 test at 129,631 miles with no advisories, indicating the recent upkeep has been clean and consistent across the last two annual cycles. Annual mileage sits at roughly 8,300 miles against the 17-year lifespan, a typical use profile for a supermini of this era. The records show steady accumulation: 119,080 miles in January 2024 rising to 141,236 by January 2026. The DVSA data is sparse on fault detail. Both failed tests on 4 January 2024 and 2 January 2025 list no defects recorded, yet the vehicle passed only days later on each occasion, implying the initial failures stemmed from administrative or unlogged minor issues rather than mechanical rejection. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and 141,000-mile tally. The clean advisory history offers no warning of corrosion or worn consumables, but Peugeot 207 platforms of this vintage commonly develop subframe rust and rear beam axle fatigue not always captured in a pass result. Verify the V5C and interrogate the gap between the two 2024 and 2025 failure and pass dates with the prior owner. Passing within days on both years with no recorded defects suggests quick rectification or test-centre discrepancy, not deferred maintenance. The pattern reflects an owner conducting basic annual compliance rather than neglect.
