2002 Citroen Saxo 1.1L Petrol · AX02 KKF

The vehicle remains roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, despite recurring minor age-related defects. The most recent test on 21 July 2025 at 56,903 miles showed no mechanical failures, noting only discolouration on the rear direction indicators. This represents an improvement over the 2024 test, where several advisories regarding tyres, registration plates, and brake components were recorded. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 24-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,371 miles per year. There is a significant gap in records between October 2020 at 51,367 miles and September 2022 at 51,824 miles, during which the car covered only a few hundred miles. This low usage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine, but increases the likelihood of rubber component degradation and fluid breakdown due to long periods of standing rather than mechanical stress. A buyer must pay close attention to the front braking system, as the record shows consistently pitted and scored brake discs in every test from 2020 through 2024. The recurring advisories for perishing and cracking tyres in 2022 and 2024 indicate that the rubber components are suffering from age-rot rather than tread wear. Physical inspection of the suspension bushes and structural integrity is also essential, as low-mileage Citroens of this era are prone to hidden corrosion that the MOT tester may not fully capture until it reaches a failure threshold.
