2022 Citroen C4 Sense + Puretech S/S Auto 1.2L Petrol · DN22 HCP

The vehicle presents a mixed mechanical profile based on its DVSA MOT record and usage patterns. Over the years, it has accumulated a total of 27,147 miles, which aligns with an expected rate for a car of its age, approximately 6,787 miles per year. This level of wear suggests a fairly consistent usage profile, though the cumulative effect of repeated exposure to road conditions could indicate gradual degradation in certain systems. The recurring advisories point to specific issues that have been identified, most notably the front brake disc wear and the nearside windscreen wiper performance. These are not isolated incidents but part of a pattern that warrants close attention during the test drive. The mileage data alone does not reveal a sudden spike or a prolonged period of heavy use, but it does reflect a steady accumulation over time. This means the suspension bushings, steering linkages, and possibly the drivetrain components have experienced normal but consistent strain. The fact that the vehicle has passed MOTs twice in the last year demonstrates a degree of reliability, yet the repeated minor issues suggest that maintenance may have been infrequent or inconsistent. On a practical level, this translates to a need for vigilant inspection of the braking system and windscreen components during the evaluation. When assessing the car's condition, the buyer should pay particular attention to the braking system, focusing on the front disc for any signs of excessive wear or scoring, and the windscreen wiper to confirm it clears the glass effectively. The subframe and structural elements appear to have held up well based on the MOT outcomes, but no major structural concerns were noted. Overall, while the vehicle shows a clean recent history, the accumulated advisories and consistent mileage suggest a cautious approach to its mechanical integrity. It is advisable to prioritize hands-on checks of the braking and visibility systems before committing to purchase.
