2007 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · NG07 XBX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 11 March 2026 at 112 460 miles. The test recorded only advisories: nearside front tyre worn close to the legal limit, corrosion on both rear subframe mountings and both rear coil springs. The pattern of recent failures—most notably the rear brake pipe corrosion and registration plate lamp fault on 5 March 2026—indicates a worsening trend in rust‑related issues, despite the low mileage. Each failure was followed by corrective work and a subsequent pass, suggesting the owner has addressed problems promptly, yet the recurring corrosion points to an underlying exposure problem. Mileage accumulation has been modest for a 2007 model, averaging roughly 5 900 miles per year over the 19‑year lifespan. The MOT records show a regular annual testing rhythm, with gaps ranging from two months to just over a year, and no large mileage jumps between tests. The vehicle’s 112 460 miles is well below typical usage for its age, reflecting light or intermittent use rather than continuous high‑intensity driving. A buyer should inspect the rear subframe mountings for excessive corrosion, as both mountings have been flagged in successive tests. The rear coil springs also show rust and will need close examination for structural integrity. Brake pipe condition is critical; the rear brake pipe has been excessively corroded twice, and the nearest test still notes corrosion on the rear subframe area, implying possible pipe deterioration. Tyre condition warrants a thorough check, given the repeated advisories on tread wear and edge wear on both front and rear tyres. The registration plate lamp should be tested for operation, as it failed most recently. Suspension components, particularly the rear suspension mounting and any bushings, have shown corrosion and wear over the years. Wheel bearings on both rear axles have exhibited play and noise, so they must be inspected for smooth operation. Finally, any oil leak—recorded as present in 2023—should be examined to ensure it has been fully resolved and is not causing ongoing contamination. These inspections will provide a realistic picture of the vehicle’s current mechanical state beyond the MOT advisories.
