2013 Citroen C4 1.6L Petrol · FJ13 SVP

The Citroen C4 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 1 May 2024 at 85,555 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 24 April 2023 at 84,350 miles confirms no advisories or mechanical faults carried forward. The vehicle shows no worsening pattern across the supplied record. Recorded mileage sits at 85,555 against a 2013 build, averaging roughly 6,581 miles per year and matching typical use for this age. The gap between the 15 April 2022 test at 80,022 miles and the 24 April 2023 pass at 84,350 miles shows only 4,328 miles added in twelve months. A four-day fail and repass in April 2023 at 84,344 and 84,350 miles with no defects logged suggests an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. The history is sparse and clean, with no consumable or structural issues flagged at any stage. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers given the car is thirteen years old and rubber and friction components degrade with age irrespective of low mileage. The absence of corrosion or exhaust emission advisories in the MOT data does not exempt the underside from checks for structural rust. Given the lack of recorded faults, previous ownership appears to have kept basic upkeep current. The repeated clean tests imply the car was not run on worn tyres or neglected brakes, but a pre-purchase examination remains sensible to confirm the DVSA snapshot reflects true condition.
