2017 Citroen C1 1.2L Petrol · AF67 ULP

The Citroen C1 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 4 August 2025 at 54,303 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. A failed test logged on the same date at 54,298 miles shows no defects listed, indicating an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault, with the vehicle passing later that day. Annual mileage sits at a modest 6,034 miles against the car's nine-year life, reflecting light use. The records show 22,684 miles in September 2022, 31,220 miles in August 2023, 43,963 miles in August 2024, and 54,303 miles in August 2025. The yearly increments of roughly 8,000 to 11,000 miles are consistent and show no standing periods or sudden accumulation spikes. The clean pass history with zero advisories across all five entries suggests the previous owner kept basic consumables and structural items within tolerance. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unblemished record. The absence of advisories does not rule out early wear in suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake discs that a tester may judge as passing but near limit. Given the car's low annual use, check for perished rubber components and corroded subframes from moisture exposure during idle spells. Verify the 4 August 2025 failure reason at the DVSA portal, as the blank defect field is unusual. Confirm the V5C matches the 54,303-mile odometer and inspect underneath for structural rust on sills and suspension mounts before purchase.
