2007 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · MK57 WSX

The vehicle presents a concerning maintenance trend characterized by recurring structural and mechanical degradation that remains unaddressed. While it passed its last recorded test in February 2022 at 73,413 miles, this followed an immediate failure just one day prior. The vehicle has not been tested for over four years of the current date. The history shows a pattern of neglecting corrosion and wear-related components, suggesting that repairs are only undertaken when strictly necessary to pass an MOT test rather than through a proactive maintenance schedule. At 19 years old, the recorded mileage of 73,413 miles represents a low average of approximately 3,864 miles per year. However, there is a significant gap in the records between May 2019 and February 2021, during which the car covered under 4,000 miles. This low-use profile often correlates with accelerated deterioration of rubber-based components, as evidenced by the 2019 advisory for perishing tyres and the subsequent failures of suspension bushes and wiring looms in the 2021 and 2022 tests. A buyer must conduct a rigorous physical inspection of the front sub-frame and rear axle beam, as the record repeatedly flags corrosion in these areas. Although the 2022 tester noted these were not yet seriously weakened, structural rust on vehicles of this age progresses rapidly if left untreated. The nearside rear brake pipe requires close attention as it has been flagged for corrosion since 2021, indicating a high risk of fluid leaks if not replaced. The suspension system, specifically the lower arms, bushes, and anti-roll bar pins, shows a history of excessive wear. The buyer should also verify the offside rear wheel bearing, which failed in 2022, and check the front discs for pitting. Given the previous deterioration of the nearside electrical wiring near the A pillar, the electrical system should be checked for chafing that could lead to intermittent faults.
