2001 Peugeot 106: petrol or diesel?
Petrol, diesel and hybrid versions go wrong in different ways, so each has its own figures from the MOTs these cars had during 2023–2025. Pick the one you’re looking at: the fuel is on the logbook and in the car’s MOT history.
Petrol
53% pass first time (all 2001 cars: 60%)
Stands out: exhaust emissions (catalyst) 3.5×, brakes pulling to one side 3.5×, steering rack 3.7×
2,646 MOTsSee the petrol guide ›
Diesel
66% pass first time (all 2001 cars: 60%)
Nothing stands out above the usual rate
192 MOTsSee the diesel guide ›
Hybrid versions had too few MOTs for figures of their own, or weren’t sold.
