2006 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · WJ56 OEW

This Peugeot 107 demonstrates a stable roadworthiness record over the past two years, with no defects or advisories recorded in any of the five MOT tests conducted between September 2022 and September 2025. The most recent test, on 17 September 2025 at 39,627 miles, passed without issue, though the immediate preceding test—just six days earlier at 39,621 miles—was a rare failure. This suggests either an administrative oversight or a brief, isolated anomaly rather than a recurring mechanical concern. The absence of repeated advisories or defects in prior tests indicates the vehicle has not experienced persistent issues with suspension bushes, coil springs, binding calipers, brake discs, or structural corrosion, which are common failure points for this model age. The recorded mileage of 39,627 miles over nearly 20 years reflects an exceptionally low annual average of approximately 1,981 miles, well below the typical UK usage rate for a vehicle of this age. This pattern implies either prolonged periods of non-use or very light daily driving, which could mitigate some wear on components like the drivetrain and suspension. Notably, there are no gaps exceeding the standard 12-month MOT interval, and the mileage increments between tests remain consistent, suggesting the vehicle was regularly serviced or driven in short, controlled bursts. The lack of rapid mileage accumulation—such as a sudden jump of 2,000+ miles between tests—also reduces the likelihood of accelerated wear on high-stress parts. Given the clean MOT history, a prospective buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of the vehicle’s suspension geometry, particularly the rear subframe and bushings, as these are prone to fatigue over time despite low mileage. The brakes, while never flagged in tests, should be assessed for uneven wear or corrosion on the caliper slides and discs, especially if the vehicle has stood for extended periods. Tyre condition warrants scrutiny, as the absence of tread-related failures in recent tests could mask underlying issues such as uneven wear or low pressure from infrequent use. Finally, a detailed examination of the underbody for corrosion—particularly around the sills, wheel arches, and exhaust system—is essential, as rust can compromise structural integrity even at low mileages. The lack of advisories does not preclude these areas from degradation over two decades.
