2014 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · CK14 DYY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history shows a minor trend toward reactive repairs. In the most recent test on 12 June 2025 at 71,276 miles, the car failed due to a non-functional nearside rear stop lamp and a non-excess oil leak. While it passed the retest immediately, the presence of the oil leak suggests a component is beginning to fail, which requires monitoring to prevent a more significant issue. At 71,276 miles, this 2014 Citroen C1 reflects low usage, averaging approximately 5,940 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns with a 6,832-mile gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 6,248-mile interval before the most recent inspection. This low annual mileage typically indicates less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber seals and hoses if the vehicle sits stationary for long periods between journeys. A buyer should specifically inspect the source of the oil leak identified in the June 2025 test. Although the tester deemed it not excessive at the time, leaks on these engines often stem from head cover gaskets or oil seals which can worsen over time. Given the previous failure for headlamp aim in 2024 at 65,028 miles, verify that the lighting alignment remains correctly adjusted and the bulbs are secure. Since no structural advisories for corrosion or suspension wear have appeared in the records, a physical check for under-body rust in the sills and arches remains standard practice for a vehicle of this age.
