2010 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · FN60 MVX

The Citroen C1 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 21 August 2025 at 44,557 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. The day prior, on 20 August 2025, the same mileage entry shows a fail with no defects listed, indicating an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Across the five tests from 19 August 2022 to 21 August 2025, the vehicle passed every examination with zero advisories, confirming no escalating wear or recurring defects. The mileage pattern reflects exceptionally light use for a 2010 registration. The car covered just 4,836 miles between the 19 August 2022 test at 34,822 miles and the 19 August 2024 test at 39,721 miles, then added only 4,836 miles to reach 44,557 miles by August 2025. That averages roughly 2,785 miles per year across its life. Such low annual accumulation over sixteen years suggests prolonged standing periods, which can allow tyres to perish, brake calipers to seize, and underbody corrosion to develop unseen despite clean MOT sheets. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and likely static storage. The absence of advisories across all records means no tester flagged binding calipers or structural integrity concerns, but a 2010 chassis can hide rust in sills and subframes not caught in a lift-free test lane. Check the exhaust emissions and fluid condition before purchase. The clean history implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current, yet the 2025-08-20 fail with no defects recorded warrants confirmation the V5C and test certificate match the DVSA entry to rule out a clerical anomaly.
