2018 Citroen C4 Cactus 1.2L Petrol · FN18 OKS

The 2018 Citroen C4 Cactus presents a stable and exemplary maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass at its most recent MOT on 25 February 2026 at 23,873 miles. The tester recorded zero defects, indicating the vehicle currently meets all required safety and emissions standards. This unblemished record across five consecutive tests demonstrates consistent mechanical care and a complete absence of recurring faults. The mileage accumulation is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 2,984 miles annually. Between the February 2025 test at 20,138 miles and the February 2026 test at 23,873 miles, the car covered just 3,735 miles over twelve months. Prior to this, the annual increments were similarly modest, ranging from approximately 2,700 to 3,800 miles per year. Such low usage suggests the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary, which carries its own mechanical implications despite the lack of wear from driving. Despite the flawless MOT history, a buyer must inspect the vehicle for issues stemming from prolonged inactivity rather than high mileage. Tyres should be checked for sidewall cracking and flat spots, as low annual mileage means the rubber may have aged past its serviceable life regardless of remaining tread depth. Brake discs and calipers require close examination for surface corrosion and potential binding, common afflictions on vehicles that sit idle. Suspension bushes and coil springs should be assessed for deterioration, while the underbody and structural mounting points need a thorough inspection for corrosion exacerbated by standing.
