2021 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · HJ71 ACV

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 6 November 2025 at 23,842 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a similarly clean result from the 7 November 2024 test, indicating the car has been maintained to a standard that meets DVSA requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is notably low for a five year old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,768 miles per year. Between the November 2024 test at 15,476 miles and the November 2025 test at 23,842 miles, the car covered 8,366 miles. This suggests a period of increased usage in the last year compared to its earlier history, though the overall odometer reading remains well below the national average for this age. The absence of advisories across the last two tests suggests a lack of immediate wear on critical components. However, low mileage vehicles can suffer from dormant issues such as perished tyres or seized brake calipers due to inactivity. A buyer should manually check the tyre date codes to ensure the rubber has not hardened and verify that the brake discs are free from surface corrosion. Given the clean record, there are no systemic faults in the suspension or structural integrity to flag. A physical inspection should focus on fluid levels and battery health, as short trips or long standing periods often lead to premature battery degradation in small city cars like the C1.
