2016 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · AX65 ERY

The Citroën C4’s most recent MOT test on 2025-07-18—just under a year ago at 116,415 miles—confirms it passed without any defects, a consistent pattern across all five recorded tests since 2022. There is no evidence of recurring mechanical failures or advisories in the official record, suggesting the vehicle has undergone regular servicing and maintained structural integrity. The absence of failings on critical systems like suspension bushes, coil springs, or binding calipers implies no obvious signs of neglect, though a thorough in-person inspection remains essential to verify hidden wear. The mileage progression of roughly 11,600 miles annually aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, with no abrupt jumps or prolonged stagnation. The most notable anomaly is the duplicate MOT entry for December 2024—both marked as passed at 110,666 miles—though this does not indicate mechanical issues. The steady accumulation of miles without gaps suggests consistent driving rather than prolonged storage, which could mitigate some wear concerns. Still, the lack of pre-MOT service records means potential hidden issues could exist. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise inspecting suspension components—particularly the rear bushes and ball joints—due to the vehicle’s age and mileage. The front and rear brake discs and calipers warrant close examination for uneven wear or corrosion, especially if the vehicle has seen varied road conditions. Tyres, though not flagged in tests, should be checked for uneven tread depth or sidewall damage, as failing twice on tread in other records would be a red flag. Structural underbody corrosion, particularly around the wheel arches and sills, is another critical area to assess, as it often goes unnoticed until it compromises structural integrity.
