CITROEN C1 SHINE2022 · 1.0L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following its most recent MOT test on 11 November 2025. Although the record shows a momentary failure on that same date at 47,542 miles, the immediate pass suggests a minor administrative or consumable-related defect that was rectified without further escalation. The absence of recorded advisories across the last two tests indicates that the mechanical and structural integrity of the vehicle currently meets minimum regulatory standards. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 11,886 miles per year. Between the October 2024 test at 42,300 miles and the November 2025 test at 47,542 miles, the car covered 5,242 miles in just thirteen months. This steady interval suggests regular road use rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for maintaining components like seals and brake calipers to prevent seizing or dry rot. Since the MOT history shows no recurring mechanical faults or structural corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on standard consumable wear that falls outside the testing criteria. A buyer should verify the condition of the brake pads and discs for uneven wear, check the tread depth and age of the tyres, and inspect the suspension bushes for signs of cracking. Given the clean record, the vehicle appears to have been maintained adequately, but a check for fluid leaks or loose underbody components remains a prudent step before purchase.
