2014 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · AK64 ACJ

The 2014 Citroen C1 demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with the most recent September 2025 MOT at 52,676 miles recording a pass and no defects. The prior August 2024 test, also at 50,846 miles, showed a pass, though an identical date and mileage for a failed test suggests a possible administrative error. No recurring mechanical issues are evident in the record, and the vehicle has maintained compliance without advisories. The absence of defects in the last three tests indicates consistent maintenance, though the failed entry warrants verification to confirm accuracy. The vehicle’s mileage of 52,676 miles over 12 years equates to approximately 4,390 miles annually, significantly below average for its age. This low usage could imply infrequent operation or extended periods of inactivity, which may affect components like the battery, fluids, and rubber seals. The MOT history shows regular testing intervals, with the 2023 test at 49,078 miles and 2022 test at 46,482 miles, suggesting a steady but minimal driving pattern. No rapid mileage spikes are present, which reduces wear on consumables but may necessitate closer inspection of static components. A buyer should prioritise checking the underbody for corrosion, particularly in areas prone to moisture, given the low mileage and potential for stagnant conditions. Suspension components, including bushes and coil springs, should be assessed for wear, as prolonged inactivity can accelerate degradation. The brake system, including calipers and discs, warrants scrutiny to confirm no binding or uneven wear, though no such issues were flagged in the record. The exhaust system and emissions controls should also be verified, as low usage may lead to carbon buildup or component stiffness.
