2007 Peugeot 4007 2.2L Diesel · WV57 KXE

The vehicle is currently without a valid MOT certificate, as the last recorded test was over two years ago on 15 April 2024 at 171,124 miles. While that specific test passed without defects, the broader maintenance trend shows a period of decline between 2021 and 2023. The car suffered multiple failures during this window, specifically regarding suspension integrity and lighting, suggesting a reactive rather than proactive approach to maintenance. The mileage is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 9,007 miles per year. There is a notable increase in usage between April 2023 and April 2024, where the odometer rose by 9,202 miles in a single year. This is a slight uptick compared to the 10,438 miles covered between April 2022 and April 2023, indicating the car remained in active use until its last recorded test. A buyer must prioritize a thorough inspection of the chassis and braking system. The MOT record shows a persistent issue with corroded rear brake pipes and a corroded rear sub-frame, flagged consistently from April 2021 through April 2023. Although these were listed as not seriously weakened at the time, corrosion is progressive. The history of the rear sub-frame and brake lines suggests a high risk of structural degradation or fluid leaks if these components were not fully replaced. The suspension system also shows a pattern of wear. The tester flagged worn suspension arm pins, bushes, and a serious fluid leak from the offside front shock absorber during the April 2023 failure. While the 2024 pass suggests these were rectified, the recurring nature of suspension bush deterioration across several years indicates the chassis has endured significant stress. Any current play in the steering or knocking sounds during a test drive would confirm that these components are failing again.
