2010 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · EF59 WXG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT test in February 2026 at 54,047 miles. While the record shows technical failures on the same days as the 2024 and 2026 tests, the subsequent passes indicate successful rectification. The lack of recorded advisories across the last three passing tests suggests the vehicle is currently meeting minimum legal standards without outstanding mechanical defects or structural concerns. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a sixteen-year-old Citroen, averaging approximately 3,378 miles per year. Between February 2024 and February 2025, the car covered 4,907 miles, while it added another 3,083 miles in the following year. This consistent, low-intensity usage suggests the vehicle has seen minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine, though low-mileage often leads to age degradation of rubber-based components and potential seizing of braking hardware due to lack of regular heat cycles and movement. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to low-mileage, high-age failure. Inspect for seized brake calipers or pitted brake discs, as infrequent use can cause surface corrosion. Examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or fatigue, as these perish over time regardless of distance driven. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough check of the structural sills and floor pans is essential to ensure that low mileage has not masked hidden structural corrosion.
