2015 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · CV15 WPU

The 2015 Citroen C4 presents a stable and reassuring maintenance trend, with the most recent MOT on 18 December 2025 at 268,269 miles passing cleanly with zero defects. That is a strong result for a vehicle of this age and mileage. The preceding tests in June 2025, March 2025, and September 2024 all passed without advisories or failures, indicating consistent upkeep rather than reactive repairs. No recurring faults appear in the record, and the trajectory is one of steady, defect-free operation. The mileage accumulation tells its own story. Between the September 2024 test at 214,663 miles and the December 2025 test at 268,269 miles, the car covered roughly 53,600 miles in just over 15 months. That is an annualised rate well above the vehicle's lifetime average of around 24,388 miles per year. The gap between the March 2025 test at 233,399 miles and the June 2025 test at 245,511 miles shows a further 12,112 miles in three months alone. This is intensive use, likely sustained motorway or fleet-style driving, which places elevated stress on consumable components even if the MOT record itself remains clean. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should approach the physical inspection with the mileage firmly in mind. At 268,269 miles, suspension bushes, coil springs, and dampers are well into their service life and should be checked for play, cracking, or oil misting. Brake discs, pads, and calipers warrant close scrutiny for uneven wear or binding, particularly given the sustained high-mileage use. The exhaust system and DPF should be inspected for cracking, blowing joints, and soot deposits, as repeated long-distance running can mask intermittent emissions faults between test dates. Tyre condition and wheel alignment deserve attention too, as high-mileage vehicles often show accelerated or uneven tread wear that a single MOT pass does not fully capture. Structurally, the subframes, sills, and inner arches should be examined for corrosion, especially if the vehicle has spent years on salted roads. The steering rack, track rod ends, and CV joints should be assessed for slack or deterioration. A clean MOT record is encouraging, but it reflects a snapshot on test day. At this mileage, the condition of wear components between tests matters as much as the certificates themselves.
