2006 Peugeot 307 1.6L Petrol · GF56 AEK

This Peugeot 307 shows a stable roadworthiness trend with a clean bill of health in its most recent inspection. The test on 23 January 2026 at 131,478 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the last several years, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that satisfies DVSA requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is typical for a twenty year old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,574 miles per year. The distance covered between the January 2023 test at 121,666 miles and the January 2026 test at 131,478 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 3,200 to 3,700 miles annually. A brief failure on 15 January 2025 at 128,120 miles was resolved within five days, which is common for minor administrative or quick-fix issues. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer must manually inspect the chassis and suspension. Vehicles of this age and model often suffer from corrosion on the sills and rear subframe, which may not always trigger a failure if the structural integrity remains sufficient. You should check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for perishment or cracks, as these rubber components degrade over two decades regardless of mileage. Check for any signs of oil leaks around the engine bay and inspect the brake discs for pitting or lip formation. While the tester flagged no defects in January 2026, the absence of advisories on a twenty year old car is unusual. A physical check of the tyre tread depth and the operation of the electrics will confirm if the previous owner adhered to a strict maintenance schedule or simply performed the minimum work required to pass the annual test.
