2020 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · FE20 AVF

The 2020 Citroen C1 demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded in its last three MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-12-01 assessment at 23,663 miles. The 2023-11-28 test, which showed a failure, did not list any defects, suggesting a possible administrative error or procedural issue. No recurring mechanical issues or advisories appear in the history, indicating consistent maintenance. The vehicle’s low mileage of 23,663 miles for its age raises questions about usage patterns but does not inherently signal mechanical risk. The mileage progression shows gradual accumulation, with 12,974 miles recorded in 2023-02-28 and 23,663 miles in 2025-12-01, averaging 3,944 miles annually. Gaps between tests exceed 11 months, which is beyond the standard 10-month MOT validity period, but the vehicle remains compliant. The absence of defects in recent tests suggests no immediate concerns, though the 2023-11-28 failure without recorded faults warrants scrutiny. Low mileage may indicate infrequent use, which could affect components like brake discs or suspension bushes if the car has been stationary for extended periods. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for signs of corrosion, particularly around the chassis and underbody, given the low mileage and potential for stagnant fluid systems. Check suspension components, including bushes and coil springs, for wear that might not yet trigger advisories. Verify the condition of brake discs and calipers, as prolonged inactivity can lead to binding or uneven wear. The lack of MOT advisories is positive, but the 2023 failure without defects necessitates a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm no underlying issues were overlooked.
