2008 Citroen C4 2.0L Diesel · GY08 YHO

The Citroen C4 passed its most recent MOT on 6 January 2022 at 93,992 miles with no defects recorded, leaving the vehicle roadworthy at that point. The maintenance trend appears stable on paper, though the sparse record limits confidence. Two days earlier, on 4 January 2022, the car failed at 93,982 miles yet the tester logged no defects, a contradictory entry that points to an administrative or data-recording anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. The odometer shows 93,992 miles against an 18-year lifespan, averaging just 5,222 miles per year. This is low for the age and suggests light use or extended periods off the road. The gap between the failed and passed tests covers only ten miles, and no further tests exist beyond January 2022, leaving a four-plus-year void to the present date of 8 July 2026. A buyer must treat the missing MOT coverage since early 2022 as the primary risk. The car has stood untaxed or untested for years, raising the chance of perished rubber components, seized brake calipers, and corrosion on structural members. The clean pass gives no advisories on suspension bushes, exhaust, or tyres to chase up. Given the contradictory failure with no defects and the long test gap, a physical inspection should confirm brake freedom, check for structural rust, and verify the suspension has not degraded through inactivity. Low mileage hides standing damage more than wear.
