2010 Peugeot 207 1.6L Petrol · YT10 KLS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive repairs rather than proactive upkeep. While it passed its most recent test in August 2025 at 93,350 miles, it had failed that same test due to a worn offside front suspension ball joint and fluctuating front service brakes. The persistence of advisories regarding brake condition and structural corrosion suggests that the owner only addresses mechanical faults once they reach a failure threshold or appear on an MOT advisory. At 16 years old, the recorded 93,350 miles represent a low annual usage pattern of approximately 5,800 miles per year. The data shows consistent but infrequent use, with roughly 3,000 miles covered between the 2023 and 2024 tests and another 5,000 miles between July 2024 and 2025. This low mileage often correlates with the degradation of rubber components and the accumulation of corrosion, which is evident in the split CV boot and corroded sub-frame noted in the record. A prospective buyer must conduct a close inspection of the front sub-frame, which has been flagged for corrosion since at least 2024. While the tester currently classifies this as not seriously weakened, rust on structural components is progressive and can eventually compromise vehicle integrity. The rear braking system also requires attention; the record shows pitted and scored discs being flagged consistently across four consecutive test cycles since 2023, indicating that these components have not been replaced despite significant surface wear. The suspension should be thoroughly checked for play, specifically focusing on the offside front ball joint which caused a failure in 2025. Given the history of fluctuating front brakes and worn rear discs, the buyer should verify the thickness of the pads and the condition of the calipers. Recurring issues with tyres reaching the legal limit in 2023 further suggest that basic consumable maintenance is often neglected until necessitated by an inspection failure.
