2014 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · GL64 VOA

The 2014 Citroën C4 has demonstrated a stable roadworthiness record over its most recent MOT cycles, with no defects or advisories recorded across five consecutive tests. The November 2025 test—conducted just six months ago at 85,641 miles—confirmed the vehicle passed without fail, despite the unusual dual entry on the same date. This suggests the car has not experienced any recurring mechanical or structural issues requiring intervention. However, the lack of advisories or defects in prior tests also means no red flags have been formally noted by testers, leaving the buyer to rely on visual and hands-on inspection for wear patterns not captured in the MOT. Mileage progression indicates consistent usage without extreme acceleration or neglect. The car has accumulated roughly 7,137 miles annually, a rate typical for its age, with no abrupt jumps or prolonged stagnation. Since the November 2022 test at 65,807 miles, the vehicle has covered approximately 9,834 miles over three years, averaging just under 3,278 miles per annum—well within reasonable bounds for a vehicle of this generation. There are no gaps suggesting prolonged inactivity, nor any rapid mileage spikes that might imply aggressive driving or deferred maintenance. Given the clean MOT history, priority should be given to inspecting high-wear components not routinely tested. The suspension—particularly rear coil springs and bushes—should be examined for uneven sagging or excessive play, as these are common points of failure in this model range. Brake discs and calipers, especially the rear, warrant scrutiny for uneven wear or binding, though no historical issues were flagged. Structural integrity is critical; check for corrosion at wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, as this Citroën model is prone to rust progression over time. Finally, verify the condition of the exhaust system for leaks or sagging supports, as emissions-related faults are not always captured in MOT tests.
