MT07 VBN MOT History
Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.
19 MOT tests are recorded for this 2007 Peugeot 207 (MT07 VBN) between April 2010 and March 2022.
The record contains 13 passes and 6 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (8 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Bodywork (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 21 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.
Recorded failure items include: “Offside Seat belt anchorage prescribed area strength or continuity significantly reduced outer sill (7.1.1 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”; “Oil leaking excessively from engine (8.4.1 (a) (i))”.
Common Problems: PEUGEOT 207
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Electric Power Steering (EPAS) Column Failure(Serious)
The EPAS column is the single biggest reliability concern on the 207. It can fail without warning, causing sudden heavy steering. Some cars have had multiple column replacements under warranty.
- VTi Timing Chain Stretch (Prince Engine)(Serious)
The 1.4 VTi and 1.6 VTi Prince engines suffer from timing chain stretch and tensioner failure, leading to chain rattle on cold start, rough running and potentially catastrophic engine damage if the chain jumps.
- EGR Valve Sticking (1.6 HDi)(Moderate)
The exhaust gas recirculation valve on the 1.6 HDi diesel can stick open or closed, causing rough idle, poor performance and excessive emissions. Carbon build-up is the main cause.
- DPF Clogging (1.6 HDi Short Trips)(Moderate)
The diesel particulate filter on the 1.6 HDi clogs quickly on short urban journeys, triggering limp mode, excessive fuel consumption and eventually requiring forced regeneration or removal.
