2010 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · LS10 VAE

The 2010 Peugeot 107 has maintained a consistent MOT history with five consecutive passes, the most recent of which occurred just five months ago on 16 December 2025. No defects were recorded in any of the tests, indicating the vehicle has avoided major mechanical or structural failures during its most recent annual inspections. This suggests the previous owner adhered to basic maintenance routines, though the absence of advisories or faults does not preclude underlying wear that may not have been testable at the time—such as suspension bush deterioration, brake caliper binding, or corrosion in less accessible areas. The recorded mileage of 117,777 miles at the time of the latest MOT reflects a steady usage pattern of approximately 7,361 miles per year, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. There are no significant gaps in testing, and the mileage increments between each annual test are consistent, averaging around 5,000 miles annually. This suggests the car has been driven regularly without prolonged periods of neglect, which could have accelerated wear on components like tyres, brakes, or suspension. However, the lack of advisories or defects in prior tests means there is no evidence of rapid deterioration or repeated mechanical issues that would warrant immediate concern. Given the clean MOT record, a buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of high-wear components that are not routinely tested. The suspension—particularly the coil springs, bushes, and dampers—should be examined for uneven wear, excessive play, or corrosion, as these are common failure points in vehicles of this age. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear, binding, or excessive corrosion, as repeated braking cycles over 117,000 miles can lead to hidden issues. Additionally, a thorough visual inspection of the underbody, wheel arches, and sills is essential to assess for structural rust, which can compromise the vehicle’s integrity without being immediately obvious. Finally, the exhaust system should be inspected for leaks or excessive corrosion, as this is often a silent failure that can go unnoticed until it affects emissions or structural support.
