2008 CITROEN C41.6L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent inspection data. The final MOT conducted on 29 September 2021 at 116,234 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the mechanical and structural components met the minimum legal standards at that specific time. However, because the vehicle has not been tested in nearly five years, the current roadworthiness status is unknown and cannot be verified without a fresh inspection. The lapse suggests the car is significantly overdue. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per year. Between March 2019 and September 2020, the car covered 13,262 miles, which represents a period of higher activity compared to its overall average. Since the 2021 test, there is no recorded data to account for further mileage accumulation. The long gap in the MOT history suggests the vehicle may have spent long periods of standing, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components, perished brake hoses, and potential surface corrosion on brake discs and exhaust sections despite the relatively low odometer reading. A buyer must prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the structural integrity and suspension system, as the record shows previous failures in 2019 and 2020 prior to passing. While the specific reasons for those early failures are not detailed in the summary, the age of the Citroen C4 makes it susceptible to corrosion in the sills and rear subframe. Inspect for signs of seized brake calipers or worn suspension bushes which often follow periods of inactivity. Given the five-year gap in testing, checking the fluid levels for moisture contamination and the condition of the tyres is essential to ensure the vehicle has not suffered while sitting stationary.
