2011 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · RO61 LXR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the MOT record reveals a persistent and worsening trend in the rear brake system, which must be inspected by a professional. The most recent test on 2026-03-16 at 69,154 miles failed due to a corroded brake pipe covered in grease or material, a condition that has persisted since the initial inspection. This failure indicates that basic preventative maintenance has been neglected, as the brake components have deteriorated significantly since the last successful pass. The failure of the rear brake pipe is not a minor consumable wear but a serious structural risk that requires immediate professional assessment. The mileage accumulation is uneven, creating a gap between the 2024 test at 67,409 miles and the 2023 test at 62,209 miles. The rapid increase in recorded miles between these dates suggests that the vehicle has been driven for a significant period, likely without any major servicing, leading to the accumulation of brake dust, corrosion, and wear on the brake discs and calipers. This pattern indicates that the owner has likely been driving the car without regular wheel alignments or brake fluid changes, which would have prevented the severe degradation of the brake system that was observed in the 2026 test. Given the recurring failure of the rear brake pipe and the lack of recent maintenance, the car is not roadworthy for driving. The buyer must inspect the vehicle by having the brakes, suspension, and exhaust system checked by a qualified technician to identify any remaining corrosion or binding conditions. The history shows that the owner has failed twice on the roadworthiness test, confirming that a previous owner had not performed the required wheel alignment or brake fluid changes, which would have prevented the severe corrosion of the brake pipe.
