2008 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · KM58 AEP

The 2008 Citroen C4 demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent August 2023 MOT confirming no defects at 132,268 miles. Previous annual tests from 2021 to 2023 also showed no issues, indicating consistent maintenance. However, a failed 2020 MOT at the same mileage as a subsequent passing test raises ambiguity, though no defects were recorded in either instance. This suggests either a procedural error or an isolated anomaly, but no systemic faults are evident from the data. The vehicle’s mileage of 132,268 miles over 18 years aligns with an average of 7,348 miles annually, reflecting moderate usage. MOT entries from 2020 to 2023 show regular intervals with incremental mileage increases, avoiding prolonged inactivity that might accelerate corrosion or component degradation. No gaps exceeding 12 months are present, and the absence of recurring defects implies no urgent mechanical concerns. However, the lack of detailed defect reports limits insight into minor wear or preventative maintenance. A buyer should verify the vehicle’s suspension components, particularly coil springs and bushes, given the age, and inspect brake discs and calipers for uneven wear. The absence of corrosion reports is positive, but a physical inspection is essential to confirm structural integrity. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the 2020 failure entry warrants clarification to ensure it does not mask underlying issues. Overall, the data supports a mechanically sound vehicle but does not eliminate the need for a thorough pre-purchase check.
