2012 Citroen C4 1.6L Petrol · HV62 ABO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing tests. The most recent inspection conducted in October 2025 at 63,689 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. While a single failure occurred in November 2023 at 48,759 miles, the subsequent pass and continued clean records suggest that the owner is proactive in addressing any identified faults immediately. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per year. Data shows a steady progression of use, with roughly 7,500 miles covered between October 2024 and October 2025, and another 7,600 miles in the year leading up to the most recent test. This low annual mileage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it also increases the risk of degradation in rubber-based parts and fluid seals due to time and rather rather than distance. Given the lack of recorded advisories in the recent tests, a physical inspection should focus on components prone to age-related failure rather than high mileage. A buyer should check for cracks in suspension bushes and perished rubber boots, which can become brittle on vehicles that sit for long periods. The brake discs should be examined for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-use cars often suffer from rust buildup on the rotors. Checking the structural integrity of the chassis for hidden corrosion is also essential to ensure that the age of the vehicle has not compromised the metal in ways the MOT tester might not have flagged.
