The PEUGEOT 107 (2009-13) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.0 12V 68 VERVE is a small, three-door city car, designed for easy driving and parking in busy streets. It sits among the UK’s most affordable used runabouts, offering a straightforward alternative to larger hatchbacks. Mycarcheck.com recorded 959 look-ups covering 530 different VINs, a substantial sample of interest in this model. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £1,900 and average recorded mileage of 81,000 miles; typical annual mileage is 5,000. Vehicles averaged around four previous keepers, so checking the individual car’s history is worthwhile. With its compact size and 1.0-litre engine, the 107 suits commuters, first-time drivers and anyone seeking a town car with low costs. Its feel makes short trips easy, while the tiny rear seats and boot are less suited to family duties. Related to the Citroën C1 and Toyota Aygo, it is best viewed as a nimble, economical alternative to superminis.
