How ULEZ rules apply to the 106

- Petrol (89% of 106s tested): most cars in our data are from years unlikely to comply.
- Diesel (11% of 106s tested): most cars in our data are from years unlikely to comply.

Buying a used Peugeot 106 for London: what the MOT data shows
The Peugeot 106s in this data were first registered between 1992 and 2003. 2002 was the most common year, with 1,258 tests (21% of the total), and half were registered in 2001 or later.
Almost every 106 in the data is from a year likely to comply, so age and condition matter more than ULEZ when choosing one. The newest (2003) passed first time 55% of the time at 73,633 miles on average, and the oldest (1992) passed 67% at 85,564 miles.
Whichever year you choose, check the 106's weak spots. The most common MOT failures were lights and electrics: "not working" (11.4% of tests); brakes: "efficiency below requirements" (6.7%); noise, emissions and leaks: "Lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits" (6.4%). The most frequent advisory was "leaking excessively from engine", on 15.4% of tests.
Overall, 56% of 106s passed first time, well below the 71% average for all cars, and they had covered 78,801 miles on average, more than the 73,145-mile average.
