Our Verdict
A solid option for those seeking a relatively recent petrol hatchback with a clean inspection record. The lack of MOT defects over the last four years suggests a consistent standard of roadworthiness.
When viewing this specific vehicle, verify the service history to complement the clean MOT record, as the MOT only confirms the car met minimum legal standards at the time of testing. Check that the 1.2L engine has been serviced according to the manufacturer's schedule, particularly regarding timing belts or chains if applicable to this specific engine variant.
Negotiate based on the current mileage and the age of the vehicle. While the MOT history is clear of defects, you should still inspect the wear on tyres and brake pads, as these are consumables that are not always flagged as immediate failures if they are just above the legal limit.
The 1200cc petrol engine is typically found in vehicles within lower insurance groups and tax bands, making it economical for daily commuting. Fuel economy should be relatively high, especially for mixed driving cycles.
Maintenance costs for this model are generally moderate, though you should budget for routine items like oil changes and filter replacements. An estimated annual running cost for this vehicle is approximately £1,100-£1,400, depending on your annual mileage and insurance profile.
Since the MOT history shows no recorded defects or advisories since its first test in 2022, there are no specific recurring mechanical failures to watch for on this particular car. However, you should perform a standard inspection of the braking system, suspension components, and tyre tread depths.
Pay close attention to the electronics and infotainment systems, as well as the air conditioning, to ensure they are functioning as expected. Given the black paintwork, check for any significant stone chips or paintwork inconsistencies that might not be captured in an MOT test.
This 2018 Citroen, finished in black, has covered 55,641 miles as of its last recorded MOT in July 2024. The vehicle has a history of four consecutive MOT passes without a single recorded defect or advisory. Given its 1.2L petrol engine, it is positioned as a modern, efficient choice for urban or suburban driving.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for this specific Citroen model to provide a comparative benchmark.
