AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This Citroen C4 presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of passes over the last three years. The most recent test on 21 August 2025 at 114,085 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed its tests on 20 August 2025 and 13 August 2024, the absence of listed defects suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues resolved instantly during the same visit. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age. It covered 2,188 miles between the August 2023 test at 111,848 miles and the August 2024 test at 113,297 miles. A further 788 miles were added by the August 2025 test. This low annual usage over the last two years indicates the car has spent significant time stationary or has been used for very short trips, which can sometimes mask underlying issues like battery degradation or perished rubber seals. The MOT history is unusually clean for a fifteen year old vehicle, showing no advisories for corrosion, suspension bushes, or brake wear. This lack of data means the record does not highlight specific weak points, but it also provides no evidence of preventative maintenance on common wear items. A buyer should manually inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion and check the condition of the tyres and wiper blades, as these consumables often degrade during periods of low mileage. Attention should be paid to the chassis and suspension components during a physical inspection. Given the age of the car, structural rust often develops even if not flagged in a brief MOT check. Checking for oil leaks around the engine and ensuring the clutch operates smoothly will confirm if the vehicle has been maintained beyond the minimum legal requirements.
