2014 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · YF14 AHP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its latest MOT in January 2026 at 22,178 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory following a period of recurring mechanical and wear issues. While the car suffered from consistent failures related to braking and rubber components, the clean sheet on the most recent inspection suggests the owner has addressed the identified faults that previously plagued the vehicle over several years. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old car, averaging approximately 1,850 miles per year. There is a noticeable gap in usage patterns; for instance, the vehicle covered only 1,044 miles between January 2025 and January 2026. This low-frequency use explains the lack of heavy mechanical wear on the drivetrain, but it directly correlates with the specific issues noted in the record. Long periods of standing often lead to surface corrosion and degradation of rubber components through age rather than mechanical friction. A buyer must inspect the braking system thoroughly, as the record shows a persistent history of thin pads and pitted or scored discs dating from 2021 through 2025. The tester flagged an offside front brake binding in January 2025, which requires physical verification to ensure the caliper piston is not seizing again. Additionally, the 2024 test highlighted corrosion on the front hubs, suspension arms, and shock absorber casings. While these did not cause a failure, the presence of surface rust suggests the vehicle is susceptible to environmental damage due to its low annual mileage. The tyres represent a specific concern due to repeated reports of cracking and perishing in 2023 and 2024. Because the mileage is so low, the rubber compound likely dries out before the tread depth is exhausted, so visually check the sidewalls for deep hairline cracking. Ensure the hazard warning switch is fully functional following its previous point of failure in 2023. Beyond these age-related items, the history indicates a vehicle that has been used sparingly but has recently been returned to a stable state of repair.
