2008 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · LS08 GZU

The vehicle remains in a state of questionable roadworthiness following a failure in its most recent test on 11 April 2026 at 131,333 miles. While the record shows no specific defects listed for this failure, the history indicates a recurring pattern where the vehicle fails the initial presentation before passing upon retest. This maintenance trend appears unstable, as the car has consistently failed to pass on the first attempt annually, suggesting a reactive approach to repairs where faults are only addressed immediately before an MOT deadline. The mileage accumulation is consistent with an 18-year-old city car, averaging approximately 7,300 miles per year. Between April 2024 and April 2025, the vehicle covered 17,649 miles, followed by another 13,462 miles in the year leading up to the 2026 failure. This represents steady annual use which places predictable wear on components like the suspension and braking system. The lack of advisories in the previous passes is unusual for this mileage and suggests that either components were overlooked or minor wear items were not being documented between inspections. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and underbody, as the Peugeot 107 is prone to structural corrosion in the rear sills and mounting points. Given the recent failure without recorded defects, the buyer should check for immediate mechanical issues such as blown bulbs, tyre condition, or fluid leaks that might have triggered a failure. Pay particular attention to the control arm bushes and coil springs for signs of perished rubber, as these are common points of failure on vehicles exceeding the 100,000-mile mark.
