1991 Citroen 2CV 0.7L Petrol · H964 YYT

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-05-08 at 54,471 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating stable roadworthiness. Previous tests from 2024-01-22 (54,277 miles) and 2023-01-25 (54,171 miles) also passed, though a failed test on 2024-01-19 at the same mileage was noted without recorded defects. This suggests either a technical anomaly or a transient issue resolved prior to the subsequent pass. No recurring mechanical faults or structural concerns are evident from the record, but the lack of recent testing beyond May 2025 raises questions about ongoing maintenance. The vehicle’s mileage of 54,471 miles over 35 years equates to an average of 1,556 miles annually, significantly lower than typical usage. This pattern implies prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on components like rubber seals, electrical systems, and corrosion-prone areas. Notably, the mileage remained static between 2021-11-17 (53,916 miles) and 2023-01-25 (54,171 miles), a gap of 14 months with only 205 miles added. Such low activity levels increase the risk of hidden deterioration, particularly in the exhaust system, suspension bushes, and brake calipers, which require regular movement to function optimally. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the undercarriage for rust, especially around the chassis and body seams, given the car’s age and low mileage. The suspension system, including coil springs and dampers, should be checked for stiffness or uneven wear, as infrequent use can lead to premature degradation. Brake components, including discs and calipers, warrant close examination for corrosion or binding, as stagnant operation may mask underlying issues. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the vehicle’s maintenance pattern suggests a need for thorough mechanical evaluation to confirm its current condition.
