2017 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · PF17 ACY

The 2017 Citroen C1 presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 17 December 2025 at 13,729 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 5 September 2024 at 9,813 miles confirms no outstanding advisory or failure issues carried forward. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical faults across its five-year MOT span. Recorded mileage sits low for a nine-year-old car. The tester logged 9,670 miles in June 2022, 8,054 miles in June 2023, then 9,813 miles by September 2024, before the 13,729-mile reading in December 2025. That equates to roughly 1,525 miles per year. The September 2024 entry shows both a fail and a pass logged on the same day at identical mileage with no defects cited, which points to an administrative re-test rather than a genuine fault. Sparse, clean records give little evidence of heavy drivetrain or suspension cycling. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of corrosion-prone sills and subframes, given the car's likely periods of standing inferred from low annual use. Check brake disc condition and caliper freedom, as limited mileage can allow surface rust and seized slides to develop unnoticed. Verify tyre sidewall age and rubber degradation, since nine-year-old original or early tyres may crack despite adequate tread. Suspension bushes and exhaust emissions warrant a cold-start examination on site. The MOT history flags no advisories, but low-use Citroen C1 models often hide worn rear beam bearings and perished mounts until mileage climbs. Treat the clean record as a sign of light use, not a guarantee of component longevity.
