2008 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · MM08 WYS

The most recent MOT on 2026-02-21 recorded a pass with repairs to n/s/r and o/s/r outer sills , corrosion on o/s/f wing , and corrosion on rear axle and suspension . This indicates ongoing structural and underbody corrosion issues, despite prior fixes. The 2026-02-06 failure highlighted excessive corrosion in rear suspension mounting areas , reducing structural strength, and corrosion on rear axle and front subframe . These recurring defects suggest persistent exposure to moisture or poor drainage, likely accelerating metal degradation. A pattern of suspension component wear emerges, including worn anti-roll bar pins/bushes , swivel pins/bushes , and distorted wheels in earlier MOTs. While many were classified as "not resulting in excessive movement," repeated issues point to gradual deterioration. The 2025-02-19 failure also noted tyre tread below legal limits and brake binding , which were addressed by 2026-02-21. However, the lack of improvement in corrosion severity implies structural risks remain unresolved . The vehicle’s mileage of 102,166 miles over 18 years equates to ~5,676 miles annually , significantly below average for its age. This low mileage could reflect light use or prolonged inactivity , both of which may contribute to corrosion from standing and stiffened components .
