CITROEN C42012 · 1.6L Diesel

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend despite intermittent failures. The most recent test on 31 May 2025 at 94,066 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that whatever issues caused the initial failure were immediately rectified. This pattern of failure followed by a pass in both 2024 and 2025 suggests the owner is proactive in addressing specific MOT-related faults as they arise rather than allowing long-term mechanical neglect. The mileage accumulation is consistent with low-to-moderate usage for this vehicle, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. Between the September 2023 test at 85,381 miles and the September 2024 test at 91,267 miles, the car covered 5,886 miles. The subsequent 2,679 miles recorded leading up to the May 2025 test shows a steady usage pattern without long periods of sitting stationary, which is generally beneficial for rubber components and brake seals that can degrade during long periods of standing. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas that triggered the failures in September 2024 and May 2025, although the record does not specify the exact defect codes. These recurring-style failures often involve consumable items like light bulbs, wiper blades, or minor fluid leaks. Given the age of the Citroen C4, a close look at structural corrosion on the subframe and the condition of the suspension bushes is essential. Check the brake discs for signs of pitting or thinning to ensure the calipers have not begun to seize despite the relatively low mileage.
