2008 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · DU08 AEG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, having passed its most recent MOT on 27 March 2026 at 111,761 miles. The record shows a clean bill of health with no defects recorded during the final pass. While the car failed its tests on 20 March 2026 and 21 March 2025, the lack of recorded defects in the history suggests these were likely administrative failures or minor issues rectified immediately on the same day. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's 18-year age, averaging roughly 6,209 miles per year. There was a notable increase in usage between March 2025 and March 2026, where the odometer rose from 99,972 to 111,761 miles. This represents a jump of nearly 12,000 miles in a single year, which is double the historical annual average. Despite the clean MOT records, a buyer should physically inspect the chassis and suspension components. Vehicles of this age and model are prone to corrosion on the sills and rear subframe, which may not always be flagged if the structural integrity remains marginally acceptable. Check for perished suspension bushes and the condition of the brake discs for pitting or heavy corrosion, as these are common wear points for a car with 111,000 miles. Verify the service history to ensure the timing belt and water pump have been replaced according to the manufacturer's intervals. The MOT record confirms the car is legally fit for the road, but it does not provide data on oil changes or drivetrain health. A physical check of the engine bay for leaks and a test drive to assess the clutch and gearbox will complete the assessment.
