2013 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · FT63 OKS

The vehicle shows a concerning trend of structural degradation and suspension wear in recent years. While it passed its latest test on 26 May 2026 at 107,573 miles, it had failed just days prior due to excessive corrosion on the nearside rear suspension component mounting area of the outer sill. This represents a significant progression from the minor corrosion noted in May 2025. The presence of misting on offside front shock absorbers and corroded coil springs across both axles indicates that age-related suspension components are reaching the end of their functional life. At 107,573 miles over 13 years, the car has averaged approximately 8,275 miles per year, which is consistent with typical UK usage patterns. However, the MOT history reveals a pattern of deferred maintenance regarding consumables and minor components. Between 2022 and 2026, the tester repeatedly flagged corroded brake pipes, pitted brake discs, and worn anti-roll bar bushes. The recurring mention of distortion on both nearside and offside front road wheels across multiple years suggests a history of impact or severe curb damage, which can affect wheel alignment and handling over time. A buyer should be extremely cautious regarding the structural integrity of the sills. The transition from minor corrosion in 2025 to a structural failure in 2026 suggests that the rust is actively advancing. Furthermore, the vehicle will require immediate attention to the shock absorbers and coil springs to prevent further mechanical failure and ensure a safe ride quality. While the car is currently roadworthy, the long-term viability of the vehicle depends entirely on the quality of the structural repairs made to address the sill corrosion.
