YS06 JSV MOT History
Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.
5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 Peugeot 207 (YS06 JSV) between May 2023 and June 2025.
The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.
The most recent test on 04 June 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.
Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (2 issues), Tyres (1 issue), Suspension (1 issue), Bodywork (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 3 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.
Recorded failure items include: “Offside Outer Integral body structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly reduced ”; “Offside Front Outer Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (”; “Offside Rear Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”.

Our Verdict
Exercise caution with this vehicle. Whil
The primary concern is the May 2025 failure regarding the integral body structure (sill) being corroded to the extent that rigidity was significantly reduced. You must request detailed invoices or evidence of how this structural repair was carried out to ensure it was welded correctly rather than superficially patched.
Given the age of the vehicle and the recorded corrosion on brake hoses and sills, check for further rust in the wheel arches and underbody. Use the history of repeated MOT failures in the last two years as a point of negotiation on the final purchase price.
The 1360cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, typically keeping fuel costs manageable for urban use. Insurance groups for the 207 are generally low, and the small engine size helps keep the annual road tax within a reasonable bracket for a 2006 model.
However, maintenance costs are likely to be higher than average for this specific car. The MOT history shows a trend of component failure, including coil springs and brake hoses, which suggests that further ageing-related repairs will be required to keep the vehicle roadworthy.
Prioritise a thorough inspection of the sills and underbody; the May 2025 failure for structural corrosion is a major red flag for a vehicle of this age. Check the quality of the repair work performed to pass that test.
Inspect the CV boots and brake hoses, as these were specifically flagged as split or corroded in May 2025. Additionally, check the rear suspension and tyres, referencing the fractured coil spring failure in June 2024 and the tyre wear advisory from May 2023.
This red 2006 Peugeot 207 has covered 64,627 miles, which is considerably lower than the model average. However, the MOT record is concerning, featuring a serious failure in May 2025 for structural corrosion to the sills. While it has passed its most recent test, the frequency of failures in 2024 and 2025 suggests an ageing vehicle with emerging maintenance needs.
The Peugeot 207 has a moderate aggregate MOT pass rate of 70.8%, with frequent failures related to headlamps, suspension arms, and tyres.

Common Problems: PEUGEOT 207
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Electric Power Steering (EPAS) Column Failure(Serious)
The EPAS column is the single biggest reliability concern on the 207. It can fail without warning, causing sudden heavy steering. Some cars have had multiple column replacements under warranty.
- EGR Valve Sticking (1.6 HDi)(Moderate)
The exhaust gas recirculation valve on the 1.6 HDi diesel can stick open or closed, causing rough idle, poor performance and excessive emissions. Carbon build-up is the main cause.
