2007 Peugeot 207 1.4L Petrol · KB07 AEC

The vehicle is currently not in a verifiable roadworthy state as the last MOT record dates back to September 2021. The maintenance trend is worsening, culminating in a failure on September 9, 2021, at 89,833 miles. While it passed a retest eleven days later, the tester flagged significant structural corrosion on the offside outer sill and a binding rear service brake. These are serious defects that suggest the vehicle has suffered from neglect or environmental degradation. The mileage is exceptionally low for a nineteen year old car, averaging roughly 4,728 miles per year. However, the data reveals the vehicle has been stagnant for nearly five years. There is no recorded mileage increase between the September 2021 test and the current date of July 2026, with the odometer remaining at 89,833 miles. This prolonged period of inactivity often leads to seized brake calipers, perished rubber seals, and flat-spotted tyres. A buyer must prioritize a thorough inspection of the chassis and sills. The September 2021 failure for excessive corrosion in a prescribed mounting area indicates structural integrity issues that may have progressed during the five year gap in testing. The braking system requires urgent scrutiny given the recurring history of binding rear brakes flagged in June 2015, December 2017, and September 2021. This pattern suggests a chronic fault with the rear calipers or sliding pins rather than a one-off failure. Further attention should be paid to the suspension and engine. The record shows a history of broken rear coil springs in 2015 and 2016, and a worn front lower suspension arm ball joint in September 2020. An engine oil leak was noted consistently from June 2015 through December 2017. Given the long period of standing, the buyer should check for fresh leaks and ensure the engine starts and runs without hesitation.
