2010 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · GV10 VVR

Recurring electrical minor defects and progressive brake component wear define the mechanical profile of this vehicle, as seen in the most recent MOT pass on 02 September 2026. The inspection history shows a persistent pattern regarding the indicator tell-tale being inoperative, a minor defect that has appeared in multiple tests across 2024, 2025, and 2026. Furthermore, the brake system is showing signs of age with a recent advisory for a pitted and scored nearside front inner brake disc. While the vehicle has passed its most recent test, the presence of multiple minor defects involving the windscreen wiper and indicator tell-tale, alongside headlamp lens issues, suggests a trend of minor peripheral component degradation. The recorded mileage of 34,210 miles over a sixteen-year period represents an unusually low usage pattern, averaging approximately 2,138 miles per year. Such low annual accumulation often indicates the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary or has been used for very short, infrequent journeys. Mechanically, this pattern can lead to specific issues such as the surface oxidation and pitting observed on the brake discs, as components may not be subjected to the regular heat cycles and friction required to keep them clean. The history also shows a significant failure in September 2025 involving a structural sidewall tear on a tyre, which can sometimes occur when vehicles sit for long periods and tyres undergo flat-spotting or age-related perishing. Prospective buyers should pay close attention to the braking system and lighting clarity during a physical inspection. The advisory regarding the pitted and scored nearside front inner brake disc indicates that the friction surfaces are no longer smooth, which may result in pedal judder or vibration through the footwell during deceleration. Given the recent advisory for both headlamps having products on the lenses, it is necessary to check if the light output is sufficiently clear for night driving or if the lenses are beginning to cloud. You should also verify that the indicator tell-tale on the dashboard functions correctly, as this has been a recurring failure point in the official records. During a test drive, listen for any unusual noises from the front end that might indicate the tyres or suspension components have been affected by the low-usage profile. While the recent MOT did not flag suspension bushes or steering linkages, the history of tyre wear and structural tyre failure warrants a close visual inspection of the remaining tread and sidewall integrity. Ensure the central windscreen wiper operates smoothly without skipping or streaking, as the defective blade was noted as a minor defect in the latest test. Checking the interior mirror for stability is also advised following the previous recorded damage to that component.
