2010 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · CK10 FPT

The 2010 Citroen C4 presents a stable mechanical history, culminating in a clean pass on 3 November 2022 at 87,750 miles with zero defects recorded. The maintenance trend remains consistently stable, showing no recurring faults or escalating mechanical issues across the documented period. A single anomaly appears on 23 October 2020, where the vehicle failed at 78,027 miles despite no defects being recorded, likely indicating an aborted test or a procedural issue rather than a mechanical fault, as it passed cleanly on the same day. The mileage profile indicates exceptionally low use for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,484 miles annually. Between May 2019 and October 2020, the odometer advanced 7,736 miles, followed by 3,330 miles over the subsequent twelve months, and 6,393 miles by November 2022. Crucially, the recorded mileage has remained static at 87,750 miles since the November 2022 test, meaning the vehicle has potentially stood idle for nearly four years as of July 2026. Despite the absence of recurring mechanical advisories, the prolonged stationary period demands a thorough physical inspection. A vehicle standing for four years suffers from deteriorated rubber suspension bushes, seized brake calipers, and degraded tyres with flat-spots or perished sidewalls. Inspect the structural integrity of the underbody and subframes for corrosion, a common issue for aging vehicles, and verify the condition of the exhaust system for rust penetration. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion and assess the brake fluid for moisture absorption, as prolonged inactivity compromises hydraulic performance and component longevity.
