2009 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · KR09 RLV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 11 August 2025 at 46,080 miles. The maintenance trend appears generally stable despite a singular mechanical failure on that same day due to the offside rear service brake binding excessively. While the defect was rectified to secure a pass, the presence of a binding caliper suggests that brake components require attention given the vehicle's low usage patterns. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 17-year-old car, averaging approximately 2,700 miles per year. The data shows consistent, low-interval usage, moving from 40,297 miles in August 2022 to 46,080 miles in August 2025. This low mileage often indicates the vehicle has sat for long periods, which frequently leads to the specific degradation seen in rubber-based components rather than mechanical wear from distance. A buyer must prioritise inspecting the physical condition of the tyres, as the record shows recurring advisories for perishing and cracking between 2022 and 2024. These issues are classic signs of age-related dry rot rather than tread depth. Furthermore, the 2022 failure regarding worn suspension arm pins and bushes on both front wheels indicates a need to verify if these have been replaced or if they continue to deteriorate, which affects steering precision. Given the recent brake failure in 2025, a thorough check of the rear brake mechanism and caliper slides is essential to ensure no further sticking occurs. The vehicle should also be inspected for structural corrosion, as low-mile Peugeot 107s are prone to rust in the sills and wheel arches. The mechanical history suggests a car that has been driven sparingly but may suffer from the effects of time and environmental exposure on its perishable components.
