2015 Citroen C1 1.2L Petrol · GK15 KWF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward minor hardware and exhaust neglect. The most recent test in February 2026 at 63,104 miles resulted in a pass despite several defects including an insecure nearside rear lamp and a loose exhaust silencer. These issues follow a recurring pattern of exhaust mounting failures noted in the 2025 test, suggesting that while the car remains functional, the previous owner has only addressed mechanical components as they fail inspection. At eleven years old, the recorded mileage of 63,104 miles represents a low usage profile of approximately 5,700 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage intervals with gaps of roughly 4,000 to 4,500 miles between annual tests from 2023 to 2026. This low mileage often correlates with age-related degradation, evidenced by the 2024 advisory regarding both rear tyres showing cracking or perishing, which indicates the rubber compound is failing due to time rather than wear from tread wear. A buyer should scrutinise the exhaust system and braking components. The failure in February 2023 at 47,165 miles highlighted significant issues with thin front brake pads and weakened discs, alongside high emission readings. While these were rectified for subsequent tests, the recurring mention of defective exhaust mounts in 2025 and 2026 suggests the entire assembly is vibrating or corroded. A physical inspection of the tyre sidewalls for dry rot is also essential, as the history confirms the vehicle is prone to material degradation despite the low mileage.
