2016 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · CA65 WSK

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT record as of the most recent test on 16 April 2025. While the record shows two failures, these appear to be administrative or minor procedural issues rather than mechanical degradation, as no specific defects were logged for the failures on 15 April 2025 or 25 April 2023. The transition from a failure to a pass within a single day in both instances suggests the tester likely identified minor non-compliance issues that were rectified immediately, leaving the vehicle in a roadworthy state. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical ten-year usage pattern for a 2016 vehicle. The car has covered 105,665 miles, averaging approximately 10,566 miles per year. The data shows steady progression from 85,462 miles in April 2023 to 95,983 miles in April 2024, and finally to 105,665 miles in April 2025. This linear progression indicates regular road use rather than long periods of stationary storage, which helps mitigate the risk of seized calipers or perished rubber components often found on low-usage vehicles. A physical inspection should focus on the mechanical components that typically wear at this mileage threshold. Given the consistent annual mileage, the buyer should check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers. While the MOT history shows no structural corrosion or brake issues, the age of the vehicle warrants a close look at the underside for surface rust and an assessment of the brake discs and pads for uneven wear. The lack of recurring advisories regarding tyres or wiper blades in the recent history suggests a consistent approach to basic upkeep. However, because the MOT record does not detail the specific reasons for the two recorded failures, a thorough check of the vehicle's service history is advised to ensure that all minor defects identified during those tests were properly addressed by a technician.
