AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2025-04-23 MOT at 87,395 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming current roadworthiness and indicating a stable maintenance trend. Since the 2022-07-27 test at 49,613 miles, each subsequent test has shown no recorded faults, suggesting consistent upkeep and no worsening condition. The mileage accumulation aligns with the vehicle’s eight‑year age, averaging roughly 10,900 miles per year; the interval from 2022‑07‑27 to 2022‑09‑01 added 1,182 miles in two months, and the jump to 59,401 miles by March 2023 reflects about 8,600 miles over six months, both within normal usage patterns for a car of this class. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, examine the condition of the brake discs and calipers for binding or scoring, and check the exhaust system and chassis for corrosion, especially around the wheel arches and structural joints, as these components commonly show signs of age even when MOT records remain clean.

Our Verdict

A solid option for those seeking a large family MPV with a consistent MOT record. The vehicle has maintained a clean pass history across its most recent inspections.

When viewing this 1.6L diesel model, verify the service history to ensure oil changes have been performed regularly, as this is vital for diesel engines of this age. Check the condition of the timing belt (cambelt) and water pump, as these are typically due for replacement around this mileage interval on many Citroen diesel engines.

Negotiate based on the upcoming service requirements and the fact that the vehicle is approaching the 90,000-mile mark. Ensure you check the electronic systems, particularly the infotainment and parking sensors, which are central to the Grand Picasso driving experience.

As a 1560cc diesel, this vehicle is designed for efficiency on longer journeys, likely sitting in a moderate insurance group and tax band. Fuel economy should be reasonable for a vehicle of its size, though driving style and load will impact this.

Typical maintenance for a Citroen of this age will involve standard consumables like tyres, brakes, and wipers, alongside more significant scheduled items like the cambelt. Estimated annual running costs fall within a standard range for a mid-sized diesel MPV.

Given that the MOT history shows no recorded defects, your inspection should focus on areas the MOT does not cover in depth. Check the condition of the diesel particulate filter (DPF) by ensuring the car can reach operating temperature and drive smoothly without excessive smoke.

Inspect the suspension components and tyre wear, as these are common areas for wear in heavier MPVs. Additionally, check the condition of the black paintwork for any significant stone chips or scratches that may have accumulated during its 87,395 miles of use.

This 2018 Citroen C4 Grand Picasso, finished in black, has covered 87,395 miles since its first registration in March 2018. The MOT history shows five consecutive passes without any recorded defects or failures between 2022 and 2025. While the mileage is climbing, the lack of recorded failures in the recent history is a notable data point for this specific vehicle.

No aggregate MOT reliability data is currently available for the Citroen C4 Grand Picasso to provide a statistical comparison.
