2013 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · PF62 FDM

A flawless five-year MOT record defines this 2013 Peugeot 107, with consecutive passes recorded on 2021-09-20, 2022-09-01, 2023-09-20, 2024-09-20, and most recently 2025-09-22, each test returning no advisories, no defects, and no failures. For a thirteen-year-old city car, this is an exceptional track record of structural and mechanical roadworthiness. The absence of recorded advisories across five consecutive examinations indicates that wear items such as the braking components, tyres, suspension linkages, exhaust system, and corrosion-prone areas have all remained within DVSA pass tolerances without any examiner concerns approaching failure thresholds. Mechanically, this presents as a stable and reassuring pattern rather than one of declining condition, and the clean sheet provides strong objective evidence that the vehicle has not suffered from the chronic rust issues, binding brake mechanisms, or deteriorated exhaust components that frequently surface on early 107s of this age. Against an age of roughly thirteen years, the recorded mileage of 22,978 miles equates to an annual accumulation of only around 1,768 miles, which is substantially below the typical usage profile for a vehicle of this type and era. The MOT history shows consistent annual testing without any recorded gaps, confirming that the vehicle has been presented for examination every year and therefore has not been laid up off the road for extended periods. From a mechanical standpoint, this low-mileage profile reduces wear on high-cycle components such as the clutch, gearbox synchros, brake discs and friction material, and the engine's internal wear surfaces. However, low annual mileage also means prolonged stationary periods between short journeys, which can promote surface corrosion on underbody components, brake disc corrosion, and deterioration of rubber and polymer items such as suspension bushes, drive belts, and door or bonnet seals. The fact that none of these typical low-mileage concerns have been flagged on any MOT suggests the vehicle has either been garage stored, used on journeys long enough to fully warm the engine and dry the braking system, or simply maintained to a high standard. For a prospective buyer, the absence of any recorded advisories means there are no specific component histories to investigate further, but a targeted physical inspection should still account for the vehicle's age and mileage profile. On a test drive, listen for any clonks or knocking from the front suspension over uneven road surfaces, which would indicate perished front suspension bushes or worn shock absorber mountings; the 107 is known for early deterioration of these components even at low mileages. Check for brake pedal pulsation or pulling to one side under firm braking, which would suggest corroded or warped front brake discs from the low-use pattern, and visually inspect the disc edges for significant lipping or surface pitting. Steering should feel precise with no excess play or knocking at the front wheels when the steering is turned with the engine running, indicating that the steering rack mounts and track rod ends remain sound. Additional inspection points should focus on the underbody and engine bay given the low-mileage caveat. Examine the exhaust system, particularly the rubber hangers and the joint between the manifold and downpipe, for signs of corrosion or cracking that may not yet have warranted an MOT advisory but could develop in the near term. Check for any signs of oil misting or weeping around the cam cover gasket and the front crankshaft seal, and verify that the coolant expansion tank and radiator hoses remain pliable and free from surface cracks. Confirm that all interior and exterior rubber seals around the doors, boot, and bonnet remain supple rather than hardened or split, as prolonged UV exposure on a lightly used car can degrade these quickly. Finally, verify that the clutch bite point remains high and firm during a hill-start test, as low-mileage urban use combined with the 107's known clutch slave cylinder location can produce uneven wear, and ensure the engine reaches operating temperature cleanly on a sustained drive with no hesitation, rough idle, or warning lights illuminated.
