2015 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · LF15 UJD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a concerning shift towards reactive repairs. While the car passed its most recent test in December 2025 at 105,263 miles, this followed a significant failure just six days prior. The presence of multiple mechanical and safety defects suggests that components are only being addressed when they reach an MOT failure threshold rather than being maintained through a consistent pre-emptive service schedule. At 105,263 miles, the Citroen has averaged approximately 9,600 miles per year, which is consistent with typical usage for an artwork-year-old vehicle. However, there is a notable gap in testing data between January 2024 (83,764 miles) and November 2024 (91,241 miles), during which the vehicle covered over 7,500 miles. This period of activity coincides with the subsequent degradation of components observed in the most recent inspections. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and braking systems. The previous failure identified worn anti-roll bar linkage joints on both sides and a perished dust cover, indicating significant wear on the front end assembly. Furthermore, the history notes pitted brake discs and a fluctuating offside rear service brake, suggesting the braking system is nearing the end of its effective life. Tire condition is also a recurring issue for this vehicle. The record shows a history of structural bulges on nearside front tyres, cracking/perishing on nearside rear, and uneven wear on the offside front. A buyer should verify that the current tyres are of adequate quality and that the car alignment is correct, as the noted edge wear patterns often indicate underlying geometry issues or worn suspension bushes.
