2008 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · SP58 MLY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, although the most recent history indicates a lapse in compliance. While the test on 14 November 2025 at 65,368 miles resulted in a failure with no recorded defects, the preceding three years show a trend of clean passes. Prior to this failure, the car consistently passed annual inspections between 2022 and 2024 without any advisories, suggesting that the mechanical components remained within acceptable operating parameters during those periods of use. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eighteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,600 miles per year. The data shows a significant spike in usage between November 2024 (54,013 miles) and November 2025 (65,368 miles), where the car covered over 11,000 miles in a single year compared to just over 1,600 miles in the previous interval. This pattern of low annual mileage often leads to the degradation of rubber components, perished seals, and seizing of brake calipers due to lack of regular movement and heat. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and the condition of the suspension system. Low-mileage cars of this age are prone to surface corrosion on the sills and floor pans which may not trigger a failure until it becomes structural. Given the recent failure in 2025 despite no recorded mechanical defects, the tester likely identified minor compliance items like light bulbs or emissions issues that were not addressed by the previous owner. Also check the brake discs for heavy pitting or uneven wear, as long periods of standing frequently cause rust to form on the friction surfaces.
