2021 Citroen C1 Shine 1.0L Petrol · DU71 EPD

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile based on the most recent inspection. In the October 2024 test conducted at 9,645 miles, the MOT passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the vehicle has met all DVSA safety and emission standards without any mechanical or structural failures being flagged during the testing process. The mileage is exceptionally low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,929 miles per year. This low usage suggests the car has seen minimal exposure, which typically results in reduced wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. However, the record only shows one MOT entry, which is consistent with its age, means long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components or fluid oxidation that is not captured in a standard test. Given that the history shows no recurring faults, a buyer should focus physical inspection on areas affected by low-mileage storage. Check the brakes for surface corrosion on the discs and flat spotting on the tyres if the car sat stationary for extended periods. You should also inspect the suspension bushes and rubber arms for cracking, as these materials can perish over time regardless of the distance driven. Ensuring the fluid levels are correct and the battery health is sound will be the primary steps for this low-use example.
