2016 Citroen C4 Cactus 1.2L Petrol · LD66 CLO

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a pattern of reactive rather than proactive mechanical care. While the most recent test in October 2025 at 89,967 miles passed, it flagged a persistent nearside front wheel bearing with play and an offside front tyre worn to the limit. These issues were also noted during the September 2024 test at 83,030 miles, suggesting that the owner deferred addressing mechanical wear until it became advisory items or repeat failures. The mileage profile is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year. There are no significant gaps in usage, with a steady progression from 51,677 miles in 2020 to nearly 90,000 miles in 2025. This consistent use suggests the car is subjected to regular road cycles, which explains the gradual degradation of rubber components like CV boots and suspension bushes seen in the records between the 2021 and 2022 intervals. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the front suspension assembly, as the nearside wheel bearing has been a recurring defect for two consecutive years without a recorded replacement. The history also shows repeated issues with the nearside front inner drive shaft CV boot, which failed in 2021 and 2022; the buyer should check for current grease leaks that would indicate imminent drive joint damage. Additionally, the 2024 failure for a nearside front top bush indicates that the front suspension components are reaching the end of their functional life.
