2016 Citroen C1 1.2L Petrol · DT16 ABU

The 2026‑03‑10 MOT at 51,966 miles passed without any defects, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows a stable, defect‑free trend. All previous tests from 2022 to 2025 also recorded no failures, indicating consistent upkeep. The mileage has risen from 36,146 miles in March 2022 to 51,966 miles in March 2026, an increase of roughly 5,800 miles per year, which is modest for a ten‑year‑old car and suggests limited annual usage or extended periods of inactivity. No gaps exist in the annual MOT filings. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, inspect the brake discs and calipers for binding or corrosion, verify the condition of the exhaust system and structural panels for rust, and assess tyre tread depth and condition, as these components are the most likely to exhibit hidden deterioration despite the clean MOT history. While the low mileage indicates gentle use, it does not eliminate the need for a thorough physical inspection to confirm that the recorded stability translates into actual mechanical soundness.
