2007 Peugeot 1007 1.6L Petrol · YP07 MYR

This Peugeot 1007 presents a generally sound mechanical picture, with a maintenance trend that appears stable and well-managed in recent years. The most recent test on 24 March 2025 at 60,991 miles passed with zero defects recorded, indicating the vehicle was presented in clean, fully compliant condition. Looking back, the 2024 test history shows a clear pattern of attentive ownership. On 9 April 2024 at 54,847 miles, the car failed on five separate items, including an insecure rear exhaust silencer, a minor central exhaust gas leak, slight play in the nearside front anti-roll bar linkage ball joint, an incorrectly coloured offside repeater lamp, and a nail in the nearside rear tyre. The owner addressed every single one of those defects and retested just four days later on 13 April 2024, passing cleanly. That rapid turnaround and full rectification speaks to a responsive maintenance approach rather than neglect. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 2007 vehicle. At roughly 3,210 miles per year, this is well below the UK average. Between June 2023 at 48,061 miles and April 2024 at 54,849 miles, the car covered approximately 6,788 miles in ten months, which is a moderate pace. However, the jump from 54,849 miles in April 2024 to 60,991 miles by March 2025 represents about 6,142 miles in eleven months, a similar rate. There are no dramatic gaps or sudden spikes that suggest the vehicle sat unused for extended periods or was subjected to intense short-term use. The odometer progression reads as consistent, low-intensity driving, likely short urban trips given the 1007's city-car design. A buyer inspecting this vehicle in person should focus on the front suspension and steering components. The slight play flagged in the nearside front anti-roll bar linkage ball joint in April 2024 was rectified, but that joint and the offside equivalent deserve a physical check for any renewed wear, particularly given the car's age. The exhaust system also warrants close attention. Both a minor gas leak at the centre silencer and an insecure rear silencer were identified in the same 2024 failure. While fixed, exhaust corrosion is common on older vehicles doing short journeys, so a thorough underside inspection for rust, cracked joints, and deteriorated mountings is advisable. Tyre condition should be checked evenly across all four corners, as the nail puncture in the nearside rear suggests the car may have been driven over road debris, and uneven wear could indicate alignment drift from the worn anti-roll bar linkage. The nearside front position lamp that failed in June 2023 should be verified as fully operational, along with all exterior lighting and the offside repeater lens, which previously showed an incorrect colour.
