2005 Citroen C4 1.6L Petrol · FP55 HWV

The Citroen C4 presents a current roadworthy status based on the most recent pass recorded on 5 December 2023 at 95,049 miles, where the tester logged no defects. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, with no advisories or mechanical faults raised at any stage. The repeated fail and pass entries on the same dates in 2022 and 2023 show administrative re-tests rather than worsening condition, as both failures carried no recorded defects. The odometer shows 86,254 miles at the 7 October 2021 test, rising to 91,157 miles by 18 October 2022 and 95,049 miles by 5 December 2023. That equates to roughly 4,500 miles per year against a 21-year-old vehicle, confirming very low use for its age. The sparse record with three annual tests and no gaps longer than thirteen months suggests light, consistent running rather than prolonged storage or high-load driving. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe corrosion, as the MOT record omits advisories that often appear on a 2005 French hatchback after two decades. The brake discs and calipers warrant checks for binding or uneven wear from low-mileage standing. Exhaust emissions and structural integrity should be verified despite the clean passes, since the DVSA entries supply no depth on component condition.
