2009 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · CX59 TZN

The Citroen C1 presents a currently roadworthy status following its most recent pass on 14 August 2024 at 138,434 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle passed with no defects recorded at that test. Prior to this, the August 2024 and August 2023 tests each show a fail immediately followed by a pass at identical mileages, yet the failure records list no defects, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults. No worsening pattern of advisories or structural concerns emerges from the data. The odometer shows 121,780 miles at the 10 September 2022 test, rising to 128,037 miles by 18 August 2023 and 138,434 miles by 14 August 2024. This equates to roughly 6,250 miles per year over the final two years, below the lifetime average of 8,143 miles per year and consistent with light use for a 17-year-old car. The record is sparse, with only three annual tests logged and no advisories or consumable wear flagged at any stage, which limits insight into suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion progression but suggests no enforced rectification work was required. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age and the absence of any advisory data to confirm hidden rust is not present. The repeated fail-with-no-defect entries at the 2023 and 2024 tests imply the previous owner attended promptly to resolve paperwork or retest requirements, reflecting basic compliance rather than deferred upkeep. Verify the function of brakes, coil springs, and exhaust emissions during a road trial, as the clean MOT history offers no evidence these components were scrutinised beyond the pass criteria.
