2014 Citroen C1 1.2L Petrol · CY64 BOV

The 2014 Citroen C1 demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with all five MOT tests from 2021 to 2025 recording no defects. The most recent test on 2025-08-19 at 70,259 miles confirmed compliance, reinforcing a consistent maintenance pattern. No recurring issues or escalating faults were flagged across the six-year history, indicating the vehicle has been well-maintained without significant mechanical or structural degradation. Mileage progression shows an average of 5,855 miles annually, below the typical usage for a 12-year-old vehicle. Notable gaps exist between tests, particularly the 9,038-mile increase between the 2021-10-12 test (45,141 miles) and 2022-11-11 (54,179 miles), suggesting potential periods of reduced activity or irregular servicing. Subsequent tests recorded smaller annual increments, with the 2025-08-19 test reflecting a 3,523-mile rise from 2024. This pattern implies the car may have experienced long-term storage or infrequent use, which could affect components like suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake calipers if not periodically exercised. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the suspension system, focusing on bushings and shock absorbers, which may degrade during prolonged inactivity. Brake components, including discs and calipers, should be checked for corrosion or binding, as low mileage can lead to seized parts. Structural integrity remains unconfirmed by the MOT records, so a visual assessment of the chassis and underbody for rust or damage is advisable. The absence of advisories in the history is positive, but the low usage profile necessitates a physical check to confirm components remain functional and free from dry rot or wear.
