Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Citroen C4 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 15 December 2025 at 76,024 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three preceding annual tests also passed cleanly. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the history, indicating the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that satisfies DVSA criteria without recurring intervention. Mileage has accumulated at a modest pace across the record. The car covered 37,525 miles by 16 December 2022, rose to 52,573 by 7 December 2023, then 66,325 by 27 November 2024, and 76,024 by December 2025. That equates to roughly 7,600 miles per year, consistent with typical use for a 2016 vehicle. The only anomaly is a failed test on 13 December 2022 at 37,524 miles followed three days later by a pass at 37,525 miles; the failure listed no defects, suggesting an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Given the absence of flagged items such as worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, or failing brake components, the buyer faces no obvious red flags from the record. The clean run implies previous owners addressed consumables before each test. A physical inspection should still confirm tyre tread depth, brake disc condition, and underbody corrosion, as these areas fall outside pass-fail thresholds until worn severely. The lack of advisories across four years suggests basic upkeep was not skipped. A pre-purchase check of the exhaust emissions and coil springs remains sensible, but the MOT data alone shows no worsening pattern requiring caution.
