2013 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · KV63 WCT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from reactive repairs to emerging mechanical concerns. The most recent test in September 2025 at 52,004 miles identified a non-excessive oil leak from the engine sump. While the car passed this inspection, it marks a new defect that was not present in previous years, suggesting that age-related seals are beginning to require attention. At 13 years old, the recorded mileage of 52,004 miles represents an average of approximately 4,000 miles per year. This low-usage pattern is consistent with the recurring issues involving rubber-based components rather than mechanical wear. Between September 2022 and September 2024, the vehicle covered only 5,233 miles. Such low frequency of use often leads to the degradation of tyres and rubber components due to time and lack of heat cycles rather than mileage-related thinning. A buyer must pay close attention to the tyres, which show a history of structural failure on the offside rear. Records from 2022 through 2024 show the tester repeatedly flagging deep cracks and perishing, culminating in a failure in September 2024 when the tyre structure cracked to the cords. Given the low mileage, any current tyres should be inspected for dry rot and sidewall cracking regardless of remaining tread depth. The braking system also requires a physical evaluation. The 2022 test noted fluctuating front service brakes, which typically indicates warped brake discs. Additionally, the 2023 report highlighted a corroded exhaust system. A prospective owner should inspect the exhaust hangers and structural integrity points to ensure the corrosion has not progressed to a point that would necessitate a full system replacement, especially given the newly identified oil leak at the sump.
