2010 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · YF60 KVP

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a consistent pattern of reactive repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in January 2026 at 31,951 miles passed, yet it noted an advisory for perishing rear tyres. This continues a long-term trend of rubber-related failures, suggesting the car likely sits for extended periods, causing components to age and dry out rather than wearing down through mechanical use. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,000 miles per year. Between January 2023 at 25,671 miles and January 2026 at 31,951 miles, the car covered only 6,280 miles. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain, it explains the recurring issues with brake corrosion and tyre degradation, as the lack of frequent driving prevents brake components from being cleared of debris and allows rubber compounds to lose elasticity and crack. A buyer must closely inspect the braking system, as the record shows thin front pads in 2024 and pitted, scored front discs by 2025. The tester also flagged a corroded rear brake pipe in 2023, which required greasing to mask the condition. These indicators suggest that the metal hardware is prone to surface oxidation due to the low usage. Furthermore, the persistent mention of perishing tyres across the last four tests indicates the current rubber is likely nearing the end of its structural life regardless of tread depth, necessitating immediate replacement to ensure safety.
