2012 Citroen D HDI Dstyle Plus 1.6L Diesel · CP12 OKV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent testing data. The latest MOT test conducted on 22 May 2023 at 73,761 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This followed a minor failure just two weeks prior at 73,733 miles, which was clearly rectified immediately, suggesting the previous owner was proactive in addressing mechanical faults to ensure the vehicle remained roadlegal. The mileage pattern is consistent with low-intensity usage for a 14-year-old 2012 Citroen, averaging only approximately 5,269 miles per year. Between September 2019 and October 2021, the car covered 11,376 miles, followed by another 11,628 miles in the subsequent twenty months leading up to the 2023 test. This steady progression indicates the vehicle has not been subjected to heavy motorway stress, though low mileage can sometimes lead to the aging of rubber-based components and fluid degradation if the car sits for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas related to the 2019 failure, specifically the nearside front upper anti-roll bar linkage and the offside windscreen wiper assembly. While these were passed previously, checking for signs of bolt loosening or perished wiper blades remains prudent. Given the age of the vehicle relative to the mileage, it would also be wise to inspect for structural corrosion on the chassis and the condition of the suspension bushes, as these components often degrade due to time and moisture-related wear regardless of the distance driven.
