2009 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · MD07 HAM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following its most recent test on 9 February 2026 at 103,821 miles, which yielded a clean pass with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears to be improving or at least stabilizing, as the vehicle has moved from a series of failures in early 2024 and early 2025 to a clean certificate in the most recent inspection. While the 2025 and 2024 tests initially showed failures, the subsequent passes indicate that identified issues were addressed promptly. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,100 miles per year. The data shows a steady progression from 84,157 miles in January 2024 to 103,821 miles in February 2026. This gradual increase suggests regular, predictable usage rather than long periods of inactivity or excessive high-speed motorway transit. The absence of significant mileage jumps between the 2024 and 2025 records indicates a consistent driving pattern. A prospective buyer should focus on the areas that caused the previous failures in January 2024 and January 2025. Although the specific mechanical components for those failures were not detailed in the provided summary, the recurrence of failures on consecutive days suggests minor consumable or adjustment issues were rectified to achieve the subsequent passes. Given the vehicle's age and the mileage reached, a physical inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs is warranted to check for excessive corrosion or wear. The lack of advisories in the most recent 2026 test is a positive indicator for the current state of the vehicle. However, because the MOT is a snapshot of roadworthiness at a specific moment, the buyer should still verify the condition of the tyres, wiper blades, and exhaust emissions during a test drive. The vehicle appears to be maintained well enough to pass inspections, but the history of failures suggests that the owner has had to intervene to maintain compliance.
