2007 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · WG57 WTC

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status but reflects a worsening trend in mechanical maintenance regarding safety components. While it passed the January 24 2026 test at 77,646 miles, this followed a failure just four days prior that revealed critical safety defects. The most recent advisory notes a noisy offside rear wheel bearing and three tyres approaching the legal limit with significant edge wear. This indicates that while the car is operational, repairs are only being addressed in response to test failures rather than through a preventative maintenance schedule. At 77,646 miles, the car has averaged approximately 4,100 miles per year over its 19-year lifespan. However, the mileage data shows significant gaps in usage, such as the 4,700-mile interval covered between January 2024 and February 2025. This low-annual mileage suggests the vehicle may have sat stationary for extended periods, which often correlates with the mechanical issues observed in the record. The January 2024 test noted all four tyres were under-inflated, further supporting a pattern of basic upkeep oversight during periods of low use. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system and front suspension. The history shows recurring issues with the offside rear brake, which was excessively binding in February 2025 and remained binding/imbalanced in January 2026. The 2026 failure also highlighted front brake pads below the 1.5mm safety limit and an inoperative offside parking brake. Additionally, the worn offside front suspension arm bush noted in 2025 and the current noisy wheel bearing suggest that the front-end components are nearing the end of their functional life and require immediate mechanical verification.
