2010 Peugeot 207 1.4L Petrol · KS10 DVG

The current roadworthiness status of this Peugeot 207 is concerning, as the maintenance trend shows a distinct decline in basic upkeep. While the vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 16 December 2025 at 74,672 miles, the initial failure on the same day highlights a lack of routine preparation. The list of defects included critical safety items such as front brake pads worn below 1.5mm and multiple lighting failures, suggesting the owner neglected standard checks until forced to address them by the test process. The recorded mileage of 74,672 over sixteen years averages to approximately 4,667 miles annually, which is notably low for a vehicle of this age. The history shows a period of accelerated usage between September 2024 and December 2025, where the car covered over 13,000 miles, contrasting with the slower accumulation seen between 2022 and 2024. This recent increase in mileage, paired with the sudden spike in failure items, indicates that the vehicle may have been subjected to harder use or deferred maintenance during its most active period of service. Prospective buyers should prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system and suspension components. The failure regarding the anti-roll bar linkage dust cover suggests potential wear in the front suspension joints that may require further attention. You should also verify the condition of the exhaust system, as defective mountings have appeared in both the 2022 and 2025 records, pointing to a recurring issue with vibration or corrosion affecting the exhaust hangers. Given the history of an oil leak noted in 2022, check the engine bay for signs of fresh fluid loss or residue that could indicate unresolved seals or gaskets.
