2011 Peugeot 207 1.4L Petrol · LL61 LHR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a persistent presence of minor mechanical degradation. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 62,642 miles passed, it flagged an offside front outer track rod end ball joint with slight play. This follows a recurring advisory regarding an oil leak that has appeared in three out of the last four years of testing. Although the leak is described as not excessive, its longevity suggests a slow seep that has not been addressed. At 15 years old, the recorded mileage of 62,642 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 4,176 miles per year. The usage pattern appears consistent and light, with roughly 4,000 miles driven between each annual MOT test from November 2022 to November 2025. This low-frequency use often leads to age-related perish of rubber components and seals rather than mechanical wear-and-tear from high mileage, which aligns with the failures of ball joints and dust covers noted in the record. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension assembly, as the record shows a history of joint failures including the 2024 failure of the nearside front upper anti-roll bar linkage and the 2025 advisory on the track rod end. The persistent oil leak requires a close visual inspection to determine if it originates from a valve cover gasket, oil filter housing, or front main oil seal. Given the low mileage, the age of the vehicle warrants a check of the condition of hoses, bushings, and tyre age, as these rubber components often crack over time when a car sits stationary for long periods.
