2013 CITROEN C4 VTR+ HDI 1101.6L HEAVY OIL

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean MOT pass on 13 April 2026 at 188,670 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record shows a pattern of reactive rectification prior to passing. The failures on 02 April 2026 at 188,630 miles and 20 March 2025 at 173,631 miles suggest that the owner addresses specific mechanical faults only when prompted by a failure. Despite these recent setbacks, the lack of recorded advisories across the last several tests indicates the vehicle meets the minimum safety standards at the time of inspection. At 188,670 miles, this 13-year-old Citroen has covered significant ground, averaging approximately 14,500 miles per year. The mileage accumulation is consistent throughout the history, with a notable jump of 21,000 miles recorded between October 2020 and February 2022. This high annual usage rate typically implies heavy motorway driving which can be gentler on components but places immense strain on the drivetrain and suspension systems over time. The regular annual testing suggests the vehicle has remained in active use rather than sitting for long periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the high-wear components common to this age and diesel engine. Given the high mileage, the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers is vital to ensure there is no imminent failure. Check the brake discs for thinning and the calipers for signs of binding or uneven heat wear. While the MOT record shows no structural corrosion, the high mileage necessitates a close look at the chassis for any emerging rust that may not have triggered a standard test failure.
