2009 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · LS09 EJJ

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a persistent trend of unresolved mechanical defects and deferred repairs. The most recent test in October 2025 at 101,925 miles showed a pass despite a noted oil leak and a minor rear exhaust leak. These exhaust issues have appeared across the last three tests, dating back to October 2023, suggesting that the previous owner has only performed the absolute minimum work necessary to pass the MOT rather than addressing the root mechanical failure. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 101,925 miles represents a low annual average of approximately 6,000 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 3,000 to 5,000 miles driven between annual tests from 2022 to 2025. While low mileage generally suggests less wear on drivetrain components, the age of the vehicle increases the risk of rubber component degradation and seal failure, consistent with the corrosion issues noted in the record. A buyer must focus inspection on the braking system and exhaust assembly. The tester previously flagged the offside rear service brake for binding in 2022 and 2023, while the nearside rear brake pipe showed signs of corrosion in 2023. The presence of grease on the brake pipe often indicates an attempt to hide leaks from the tester, which warrants close scrutiny. Furthermore, the recurring oil leak noted since 2022 requires a physical inspection of the engine to determine if it is a simple gasket leak or a more significant seal failure that could lead to oil starvation over time.
