2017 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · BW17 AEN

The 2017 Citroen C1 presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 11 June 2025 at 52,125 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, matching the clean result from 17 June 2024 at 48,179 miles. Across the available history the vehicle has shown no advisories or mechanical faults, indicating consistent compliance with statutory test standards over the past four years. Recorded mileage sits low for a nine-year-old car at 52,125 miles, an average of roughly 5,792 miles per year. The DVSA entries show a long dormant period before 2022: the 1 August 2022 test at 25,037 miles jumps to 32,376 miles by 28 September 2023, then a sharp rise to 48,179 by mid-2024. The sparse record and zero advisories mean we cannot chart gradual wear, but the data implies light early use followed by heavier recent commuting. On 28 September 2023 the tester logged a failure at 32,376 miles yet recorded no defects. This administrative anomaly, rather than a mechanical fault, is the only irregularity. A buyer should still verify the V5C and DVSA portal to confirm the failure reason was a documentation or presentational issue, not a suppressed defect. No suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions concerns appear in the history. Given the low standing mileage and clean tests, a physical inspection should focus on tyre sidewall cracking from periods of disuse, brake caliper seizure after storage, and underbody structural integrity for trapped moisture. The previous owner clearly kept statutory maintenance current.
