2016 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · GJ16 ABZ

The 2016 Citroen C4 demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded in its most recent January 2026 MOT at 62,007 miles. All tests since 2023 have passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance. A failed test on 2024-01-25 at 33,037 miles is listed but shows no defects, suggesting a possible administrative error or minor non-critical failure. The absence of recurring faults or advisories in subsequent tests implies the vehicle has been well-maintained, with no evidence of worsening mechanical or structural concerns. Mileage progression reveals a steady annual average of ~6,200 miles, aligning with typical usage for a 10-year-old vehicle. However, a sharp increase from 28,477 miles in March 2023 to 33,037 miles by January 2024—14,560 miles in 10 months—suggests accelerated usage or potential odometer discrepancies. This period coincides with the failed MOT, though no defects were logged. Subsequent tests show a return to regular mileage, with 14,488 miles added between January 2025 and January 2026. Buyers should verify service records to confirm consistency with these figures. No structural corrosion, suspension damage, or brake system faults are documented in the MOT history. However, the rapid mileage spike in 2024 raises concerns about potential wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs. Inspectors should check for uneven tyre wear, binding calipers, or exhaust emissions anomalies, as these components are prone to degradation under high usage. While the vehicle’s MOT record shows no critical failures, a pre-purchase inspection should focus on these areas to confirm the absence of hidden mechanical stress or deferred maintenance.
