2007 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · FH07 ABO

The vehicle is currently not roadworthy as it failed its most recent MOT test on 12 May 2025. The maintenance trend appears erratic. While the car passed tests in February 2023 and April 2024, the most recent failure suggests a decline in its operational status. The record shows a pattern of failing and then passing on the same day in 2023 and 2024, which typically indicates the owner addressed immediate defects quickly to secure a certificate. The mileage is consistent with the vehicle's nineteen year age, averaging roughly 6,837 miles per year. There was a steady increase from 109,615 miles in February 2023 to 120,474 miles by April 2024. However, the mileage remained stagnant at 129,910 miles between the May 2025 failure and the current date of August 2026. This suggests the car has been stationary for over a year, which often leads to seized brake calipers, perished tyres, and battery failure. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and underbody for corrosion, as older Citroen C1 models are prone to structural rust that may not always be detailed in clean MOT records. Given the long period of inactivity since May 2025, check for flat-spotted tyres and ensure the braking system is not binding. Verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components degrade with age and high mileage regardless of the lack of recorded defects. The absence of specific failure data in the provided history is unusual and necessitates a full mechanical check of the exhaust emissions and engine mounts to ensure the vehicle is actually fit for purpose.
