2016 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · CV16 EBG

The 2016 Citroen C1 presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 3 June 2025 at 19,831 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of passes with zero advisories. The maintenance trend shows no deterioration and no emerging mechanical concerns across the entire recorded history. Annual mileage has remained consistently low for a ten-year-old vehicle. The record shows 14,138 miles at the 29 June 2021 test, rising to 15,337 by 30 June 2022, 16,606 by 19 June 2023, 18,398 by 20 June 2024, and 19,831 by 3 June 2025. That equates to roughly 1,400 to 1,900 miles added each year, averaging under 2,000 annually. No gaps or sudden accumulation appear between tests; the clean sheet across all entries suggests the previous keeper kept the car lightly used and presented it for timely annual testing. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the flawless MOT trail. Low mileage combined with probable long stationary periods can mask perished rubber components, degraded suspension bushes, and surface corrosion not yet visible to the tester. The absence of advisories means no brake discs, coil springs, or exhaust emissions faults were flagged at any stage. Given the clean record, focus the viewing on tyre sidewall condition, handbrake travel, and underbody structural integrity for rust. Verify service history independently, as MOT passes alone confirm roadworthiness on the test day, not ongoing maintenance of consumables skipped between tests.
