2011 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · GU11 OCW

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in December 2025 at 118,285 miles passed following a failure just four days prior. This indicates the owner addressed critical safety issues including a worn nearside front ball joint and failing tyres immediately before the re-test. While the vehicle passed its latest inspection, the recurring nature of suspension and tyre defects suggests that components are reaching the end of their service life. At a recorded 118,285 miles over 15 years, the Peugeot 107 averages approximately 7,900 miles per year, which is consistent with typical UK usage. However, the data shows a significant spike in activity, with 11,760 miles covered between January 2024 and December 2025. This rapid accumulation correlates with the accelerated degradation of consumables and front-end suspension components noted in the records. The gap between tests remains consistent, but the vehicle is clearly being used frequently in a manner that places higher stress on the drivetrain and steering assemblies. A buyer must closely inspect the front suspension geometry, as the record shows repeated issues with ball joints, bushes, and dust covers across the 2024 and 2025 tests. The offside front wheel was flagged as distorted and cracked, which is a structural alloy defect that requires replacement to prevent failure. The binding nearside rear brake noted in the December 2025 failure requires a check for a sticking caliper or seized cylinder to prevent uneven pad wear. Additionally, the minor oil leak recorded in early 2024 should be monitored to ensure it has not progressed into a more significant leak from the engine seal or gasket. Given the history of perished tyres and worn edges, a thorough check of the remaining rubber components is essential before purchase.
