2014 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · FH63 ULP

The Citroen C4 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 January 2026 at 80,181 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three preceding annual tests from 2024 through 2025 also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failed test on 16 January 2025 at 74,449 miles, reversed later that same day at 74,454 miles with a pass and no defects listed, which suggests a minor administrative or pre-check rejection rather than a serious mechanical fault. Annual mileage sits at roughly 6,682 miles, typical for a 12-year-old vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 59,803 miles in January 2023, 67,620 in January 2024, 74,454 in January 2025, and 80,181 in January 2026. No gaps or sudden jumps appear in the data. The clean sweep of no-advisory passes across five years indicates the previous owner kept basic consumables and structural items within test limits, though a lack of recorded advisories means worn suspension bushes or corroding brake pipes may simply have been borderline rather than flagged. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the suspension and braking system given the car's age. The MOT history shows no recurring faults on coil springs, calipers, or exhaust emissions, but twelve years of use can hide fatigued rubber mounts and surface corrosion not yet at test threshold. Verify the 16 January 2025 failure reason with the DVSA, as the zero-defect record on both entries that day leaves the cause undocumented. Check underneath for structural integrity issues around sills and subframes, and confirm tyre tread depth and brake disc condition match the clean test record. The low annual mileage implies lighter use, yet standing periods between short trips can accelerate rust and flat-spot tyres. The evidence points to a conscientiously maintained example, but in-person verification remains prudent.
