2007 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · FV56 AEA

The most recent MOT entry dates from 18 November 2021 at 133,192 miles, where the tester issued both a fail and a pass on the same day with no defects recorded. This vehicle presents a maintenance trend that is stable in mechanical terms, as the DVSA ledger shows zero advisories or faults across five tests between July 2019 and November 2021. The twin outcomes on 18 November 2021 suggest an administrative correction rather than a latent mechanical fault. Mileage accrual sits at roughly 7,010 miles per year against the car's nineteen year life, a typical figure for a 2007 Citroen C4. The odometer moved from 114,925 miles at the July 2019 test to 122,338 miles by 11 November 2020, then to 133,192 miles by November 2021, reflecting steady use of about 7,400 and 10,800 miles in those intervals. A notable gap exists after the final 2021 test; no certificate appears for the subsequent four years and eight months to today, leaving current roadworthiness unverified by statutory testing. A buyer should commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, front coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and the absence of recorded wear items. The tester never flagged binding calipers or exhaust emissions anomalies, yet nineteen years of service can conceal corroded subframes or degraded components not captured in a clean MOT history. Verify the precise cause of the 2020 and 2021 failures with DVSA before purchase, as the missing defect text obscures whether those were procedural or mechanical. In person, scrutinise structural integrity at sill and suspension mounting points for rust, and confirm tyre tread depth and wiper condition despite no historical advisories. The sparse record offers little evidence of neglected consumables, but the long dormancy since late 2021 demands a fresh assessment of all fluid levels and brake function.
