2008 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · SD58 UXZ

The vehicle presents a generally stable maintenance profile, though the MOT history shows a significant gap in recorded data. The most recent test on 28 October 2021 at 31,635 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, suggesting the vehicle was in a sound condition at that time. However, with the current date being 30 July 2026, the MOT has been expired for nearly five years. This lack of recent certification makes it impossible to verify the current structural integrity or mechanical state of the car. The mileage pattern indicates exceptionally low usage for an 18-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 1,758 miles per year. The records show a steady, slow increase from 14,230 miles in September 2011 to 31,635 miles in October 2021. While low mileage often implies less wear on the drivetrain, the long periods of inactivity suggested by the mileage and the five-year gap in testing increase the risk of age-related degradation. Components like rubber seals, tyres, and fluids can deteriorate significantly when a vehicle sits idle for extended periods. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection to address historical trends in the vehicle's maintenance. The 2020 test at 30,590 miles flagged corrosion on both rear brake pipes, which required attention to prevent fluid leaks. Although the 2021 test showed no issues, the previous history of pitted brake discs in 2012 and suspension ball joint play in 2012 and 2016 suggests that the suspension and braking systems are prone to wear. The tester should specifically check for seized calipers, perished suspension bushes, and any signs of fresh corrosion on the brake lines or exhaust system. The history also notes recurring issues with wheel rims, specifically distorted bead rims in 2013 and 2018. This suggests the vehicle may have encountered significant impact damage or poor road surfaces. Given the long period of inactivity, the buyer should also inspect the tyres for flat spots or sidewall cracking and ensure the engine starts reliably without excessive smoke, as the 2016 record noted a minor exhaust leak and corrosion.
