CITROEN C12010 · 1.0L Petrol

The 2010 Citroen C1 demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent 2025-11-04 MOT at 119,505 miles recording a pass and no defects. Previous tests from 2024 to 2022 also showed consistent passes, with no recorded issues. A 2022-11-03 test at 96,926 miles was marked as failed, though no defects were listed, suggesting a potential administrative error or unrecorded fault. Overall, the vehicle has maintained compliance without significant mechanical concerns in the last four years. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging 7,469 miles annually. Tests spaced 12 months apart show steady accumulation, with no extended gaps indicating prolonged inactivity. The 2022-11-03 dual entry—both pass and fail at the same mileage—requires clarification but does not reflect mechanical deterioration. The absence of recurring defects in the MOT history implies consistent maintenance, though the lack of detailed reports limits insight into minor wear. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, such as bushes and coil springs, which may degrade over 16 years, and inspect brake discs and calipers for uneven wear. Corrosion in body panels, common in older models, should also be checked. While the MOT records show no critical failures, the vehicle’s age and mileage necessitate a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the absence of hidden issues not captured in the tests.
