CITROEN C12008 · 1.0L PETROL

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, demonstrating a remarkably stable maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on 14 March 2025 at 99,125 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This sequence of clean certificates suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that prevents immediate mechanical failure and avoids the common pitfalls seen in cars of this age. The mileage profile is notably low for a 2008 registration, averaging only approximately 5,500 miles per annum. Between March 2021 and March 2025, the car covered only 16,756 miles, indicating very light usage. The interval between the 2022 test at 84,488 miles and the 2023 test at 88,283 miles shows consistent usage patterns. Such low annual mileage typically reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine, though it can sometimes lead to rubber components deteriorating if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. Despite the clean electronic history, a physical inspection should focus on areas susceptible to low-mileage, high-age wear. A buyer must check the structural integrity of the sills and rear artwork arches for corrosion corrosion, which is a common failure point for this model regardless of miles driven. The wording bushes and coil springs should be examined for cracking or perishing, as rubber dries out over eighteen years. Additionally, the brake discs should be checked for surface pitting or thinning, as infrequent use can allow rust to form on the rotors.
