2016 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · LE16 TDO

The vehicle presents a stable but reactive maintenance profile. The most recent test on 24 February 2026 at 29,464 miles resulted in a pass, though the offside rear tyre continues to show signs of cracking or perishing. This specific advisory has appeared in three consecutive tests, dating back to March 2024, suggesting that while the tyre is legally compliant, the rubber is aging and showing signs of degradation. The mileage pattern indicates very light usage for a 2016 vehicle, averaging approximately 2,946 miles per year. The record shows a consistent, slow increase in distance, moving from 18,751 miles in February 2020 to the current 29,464 miles. While low mileage generally implies less mechanical wear on the drivetrain, the history reveals that the vehicle may suffer from the effects of infrequent use, particularly regarding rubber components and brake surfaces. A buyer should focus inspection on the braking system and tyre condition. The March 2024 test recorded a failure due to imbalanced rear brakes, and the 2023 failure highlighted pitted front brake discs alongside multiple tyre tread depth issues. The recurrence of handbrake travel advisories in 2024 and 2025 suggests the parking brake mechanism may require adjustment or service. Given the age and low usage, the cracking on the offside rear tyre is a clear indicator that the rubber is perishing, and a full set of tyres should be inspected for similar age-related deterioration.
