2009 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · PK58 AAU

The 2009 Citroen C1 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 19 September 2025 at 71,175 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Prior examinations in September 2024 at 70,089 miles, September 2023 at 68,477 miles, January 2022 at 65,452 miles, and January 2021 at 62,365 miles all returned passes with zero advisories. The vehicle shows no worsening faults, recurring mechanical concerns, or structural corrosion across the five-year record. Mileage stands at 71,175 against an age of seventeen years, equating to a low average of roughly 4,187 miles per year. The records reveal sparse but consistent use. A gap exists between the January 2021 test at 62,365 miles and the January 2022 test at 65,452 miles, after which the owner shifted to autumn testing. Annual accumulation dropped to around 1,400 to 1,600 miles post-2022, indicating light running and likely prolonged standing periods. No rapid accumulation or neglected odometer jumps appear in the data. Given the clean history, the buyer should still verify in person the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs, as low-mileage cars left stationary often develop perished rubber components and surface corrosion unseen in a pass result. The absence of advisories means no tester flagged binding calipers or exhaust emissions faults, yet a pre-purchase inspection remains prudent for structural integrity beneath sills and subframes. The record implies a careful keeper who maintained basic statutory testing but logged minimal use. Such patterns can hide dormant wear rather than active failure. A physical check of tyre sidewalls, wiper blades, and underbody rust should close the gap left by the sparse MOT commentary.
