2009 Peugeot 207 1.4L Diesel · WG09 FXS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a reactive approach to repairs rather than proactive care. The most recent test in October 2025 at 91,786 miles resulted in a failure due to multiple lighting defects, including the stop lamp, position lamps, and indicators. While the vehicle passed the immediate re-test, the failure to rectify the nearside front fog lamp due to access issues suggests a lack of attention to minor electrical faults until a formal inspection occurs. At 91,786 miles, this 17-year-old Peugeot reflects low annual usage, averaging approximately 5,400 miles per year. The data shows a significant gap in usage between July 2022 (88,320 miles) and October 2023 (90,450 miles), where only 1,130 miles were covered over fifteen months. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, long periods of standing often lead to the degradation of rubber components, perished seals, and brake corrosion. A buyer should inspect the suspension assembly specifically, as the 2023 test flagged a noisy nearside rear wheel bearing. Although no play was detected at that time, the onset of noise indicates bearing wear that requires eventual replacement. The recurring mention of cut nearside front outer tyres in both 2023 and 2024 suggests a history of curb damage or poor tyre management. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough visual check for structural corrosion on the sills and rear-section wheel arches is essential, as these are common failure points for this model regardless of mileage.
