2009 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · HY59 TYP

The vehicle remains technically roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a worsening trend in corrosion and component wear. While it passed its latest test in December 2025 at 120,718 miles, the record shows multiple recurring faults that suggest reactive rather than preventative maintenance. The persistence of corroded rear brake pipes across every inspection from 2022 to 2025, combined with the emergence of an exhaust leak and distorted wheels, indicates that the vehicle is suffering from significant environmental degradation typical of its age and mileage. At 120,718 miles, this 17-year-old Peugeot follows a consistent usage pattern of approximately 7,100 miles per year. The data shows steady progression, with a 6,672-mile interval between the December 2024 and December 2025 tests. This consistent mileage suggests the car is used regularly rather than left to sit, but the high mileage relative to its age has accelerated the degradation of rubber components and metal surfaces, as seen in the perished sidewall tyres and corroded coil springs. A buyer must personally inspect the braking system and suspension assembly thoroughly. The tester has repeatedly flagged corroded rear brake pipes and a binding offside rear brake, which can lead to failure if the lines are not replaced. The recurring distortion of the nearside and offside front road wheels, noted in four consecutive years, suggests frequent curb damage or impact that may affect wheel bearings. Furthermore, the minor exhaust leak and corroded box noted in 2025 require attention to ensure the structural integrity of the exhaust system is not failing.
