2016 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · LP65 ABO

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 7 January 2026, which remains valid until early 2027. The maintenance trend appears exceptionally stable, as the most recent test resulted in a pass with zero defects recorded. This clean bill of health suggests that the vehicle has been subjected to consistent professional oversight, as the previous three annual inspections also concluded without any advisories or failures. At 174,780 miles over a ten-year lifespan, the vehicle has covered significantly more ground than the average passenger car. The mileage accumulation is consistent, though the jump from 136,083 miles in January 2025 to 174,780 miles by January 2026 indicates a period of heavy usage, with nearly 39,000 miles added in a single year. Such high-intensity motorway or long-distance driving often places less strain on transmissions and clutches than urban stop-start traffic, but it accelerates the wear on high-mileage consumables. Prospective buyers should prioritise a physical inspection of the drivetrain and suspension components given the high mileage. Even with clean MOT records, components such as shock absorbers, suspension bushes, and wheel bearings may be nearing the end of their service life due to sheer usage. Inspect the brake discs and pads for thinning, as the recent high-mileage interval suggests these parts may have been worked hard. Examine the underside for signs of corrosion on the subframe and check for oil leaks around the engine block, as high-mileage units often develop minor weeping from gaskets that may not be flagged as a testable failure during an annual inspection.
