2021 Citroen E-C4 Shine + Electricity · BJ21 EYV

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a slight decline in proactive upkeep compared to the previous year. While the car achieved a clean pass in March 2024, the most recent test in March 2025 at 54,020 miles revealed several minor defects. These advisories suggest that while the core mechanical components are functioning, the owner is delaying basic replacements until they approach legal limits. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical annual usage for this age, averaging approximately 10,800 miles per year. Between the March 2024 test at 37,428 miles and the March 2025 test at 54,020 miles, the vehicle covered 16,592 miles. This higher interval indicates regular road use, which generally benefits the health of electric seals and braking systems compared to long periods of inactivity. A buyer should specifically inspect the tyres and alignment, as the 2025 test flagged both the nearside front and rear outer tyres as being worn close to the limit and showing edge wear. This often indicates a tracking issue or worn suspension bushes that require immediate attention. The defective front windscreen wiper blade noted in the latest record is a minor consumable failure but reinforces the pattern of reactive rather than preventative maintenance. Given the lack of structural corrosion or major mechanical failures in the history, the focus should remain on the physical condition of the rubber components and consumables. There are no recorded records of binding calipers or exhaust corrosion, but the uneven wear on the tyres warrants a physical check of the front geometry to ensure no further premature wear occurs on the drivetrain components.
