2018 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · AF18 PFO

The vehicle's current roadworthiness is in good standing, but the maintenance trend is not stable; it is deteriorating in the most recent test. The tester flagged binding rear brakes in the September 2023 test at 52,000 miles, which was a critical finding that has not been corrected since. This indicates a recurring mechanical failure that has not been addressed, suggesting the vehicle may be in a state of significant risk. The mileage pattern reveals a notable gap between the most recent test and the vehicle's age. The 2026-03-23 test was conducted at 28,137 miles, which is approximately 3,517 miles per year. This is low for a 2018 model, suggesting that the owner has likely been using the car for an unusually long period or that the mileage reflects a specific maintenance schedule rather than total driven distance. While the mileage is low, the gap between the 2026 test and the 2023 test highlights a lack of regular servicing, which could lead to accelerated wear on components like the suspension and brakes. Given the recurring failure of the binding brakes in the most recent test and the general age of the vehicle, a buyer should inspect the car in person for binding rear brakes, structural integrity of the chassis, and corrosion. The history shows that the brakes were tested in 2023, but no defects were recorded, which is inconsistent with the failure in 2023. The lack of a clear record of recent servicing means that the vehicle is likely in a state of increasing risk, requiring immediate professional assessment and potential repairs before it enters the market.
