2014 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · AP63 FOA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in February 2026 at 62,310 miles passed without major but highlighted that both front tyres are nearing the legal limit with uneven edge wear. This follows a pattern seen in 2022 where all four tyres were flagged for similar issues, suggesting the owner tends to replace consumables only when they approach failure. At 62,310 miles, this 2014 model reflects significantly low usage, averaging approximately 5,200 miles per year. The mileage accumulation is consistent, with a 5,000-mile gap noted between the February 2025 and 2026 tests. This low-mile history generally indicates less strain on the engine and drivetrain, but the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or corrosion on exposed metal, as evidenced by the defective artwork blade noted in early 2025. A buyer should pay close attention to the front suspension and braking system. The February 2024 test at 52,276 miles identified worn anti-roll bar linkage pins and pitted front brake discs. While these are common wear items on this platform, the recurrence of suspension issues necessitates checking for clunking over bumps which would indicate further bushing play. Given the edge wear reported in the 2026 test, a professional alignment check is required to ensure the vehicle isn't rapidly scrubbing off new tyres.
