2009 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · FN09 VRY

The 7 January 2026 MOT at 96,836 miles passed without any defects, confirming that the Citroen C1 remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows a stable trend with no recurring failures. At 17 years old, the vehicle averages roughly 5,700 miles per year, a figure that is low for its age; mileage increments are modest, rising from 93,893 miles in January 2024 to 95,496 miles in January 2025 (1,603 miles over 13 months) and from 95,469 miles in January 2025 to 96,836 miles in January 2026 (1,367 miles over 12 months), indicating consistent use rather than long periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, examine the brake discs and calipers for binding or corrosion, check the exhaust system and structural integrity for rust, and verify the condition of the chassis rails and wheel arches, as these components commonly show signs of age even when MOT tests record no defects. The clean history and low mileage suggest reasonable upkeep, but a thorough in‑person assessment of the highlighted mechanical areas is essential before finalising any purchase.
