2005 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · LG55 AWU

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 22 January 2025 at 82 092 miles, carrying only minor advisories: a slightly defective nearside front headlamp lens, and worn anti‑roll bar linkage pins/bushes on both front corners. The maintenance trend shows a clear improvement; early records from 2014‑2017 include failures such as a major exhaust leak, incorrect headlamp aim, non‑operating fog lamps and tyre perishing, whereas the last three tests have been clean or advisory‑only, indicating that previous owners have addressed the more serious defects. Mileage accumulates at roughly 3 900 miles per year, a low figure for a 2005‑model. The test intervals have stabilised in recent years, with a 12‑month gap between the January 2024 and January 2025 examinations, suggesting consistent ownership and regular servicing. Earlier gaps were larger, but the overall mileage growth remains modest, reflecting light use and reduced wear on high‑stress components. A buyer should inspect the front headlamp lenses for clarity, verify that the anti‑roll bar linkage pins/bushes show no excessive movement, and confirm that both registration plate lamps operate correctly. Tyre condition remains a priority; the 2019 entry notes an offside rear tyre perishing and a nearside front tyre at the legal limit, so a tread‑depth check and visual inspection for edge wear are essential. The history records exhaust rust and occasional fog‑lamp faults; a visual check for active exhaust leaks and a functional test of the rear fog lamp circuit are recommended. Older defects such as the oil‑pressure‑switch oil leak and a split front wiper blade suggest a thorough examination of those systems to ensure they have been remedied. Overall the car is roadworthy with a stable, improving maintenance record, but low mileage does not guarantee that ageing components are free from wear. Focused inspection of lighting, suspension linkage, tyres, exhaust and ancillary systems will give a buyer confidence in the vehicle’s current condition.
