2013 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · YP63 XSB

The 2013 Peugeot 107 holds a current MOT valid from 20 August 2025, meaning the certificate is now approaching ten months old with a fresh test due by 20 August 2026. The maintenance trend is broadly stable but shows a gradual accumulation of age-related wear rather than a resolving pattern. The most recent test at 72,261 miles passed, yet it carried advisories for perished suspension bushes, surface corrosion on multiple suspension components, a corroded sub-frame noted as not seriously weakened, pitted front brake discs, a worn nearside front tyre, and corroded rear brake hose ferrules. These are not new failures, but recurring observations that have persisted across multiple tests without evidence of permanent repair. The recorded mileage of 72,261 miles over roughly thirteen years equates to approximately 5,559 miles per year, which is low for its age. The mileage progression is consistent and unremarkable, with no sudden jumps or suspicious gaps. Between the June 2023 test at 60,349 miles and the August 2024 test at 68,241 miles, the vehicle covered 7,892 miles in just over a year, suggesting a period of slightly heavier use after what appears to have been a quieter earlier life. The jump from 68,241 miles in August 2024 to 72,261 miles by August 2025 represents 4,020 miles in twelve months, a modest and plausible annual figure. There is no evidence of mileage anomalies or odometer discrepancies in the record. A buyer should pay close attention to the sub-frame corrosion flagged in both the August 2025 pass and the August 2025 failure. While the tester judged it not seriously weakened at the time, corrosion in structural components on a thirteen-year-old city car can progress quickly, particularly if the vehicle has spent periods standing with low mileage use. The repeated advisories for perished rubber bushes on front and rear suspension arms and anti-roll bar linkages suggest the suspension has not received preventative renewal and will likely need attention soon. The pitted front brake discs and worn nearside front outer pad indicate uneven brake wear, and the corroded rear brake hose ferrules warrant inspection for potential seepage or future failure. The nearside front tyre worn to the legal limit at the most recent test should be replaced before further use. A thorough underbody inspection, including the sub-frame mounting points, brake lines, and suspension bushes, is essential before purchase.
