Mechanical Assessment

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

The 2013 Citroen C4 demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded in its most recent MOT on 2025-07-10 at 147,028 miles. The prior test on 2024-05-29 at 142,613 miles also passed without issues, though a failed test on 2024-05-28 at 142,610 miles—just two days earlier—suggests a possible administrative error or rapid remediation. No recurring mechanical or structural faults are evident in the record, indicating consistent maintenance. Mileage progression aligns with typical annual usage of ~11,310 miles, showing no prolonged inactivity or excessive wear. The vehicle’s 147,028 miles reflect steady operation, with no abrupt spikes or extended gaps between tests. The 2022-11-09 MOT at 134,015 miles and 2021-11-10 test at 126,938 miles confirm a regular servicing pattern, though the sparse data from 2021 to 2022 lacks detailed defect reports. A buyer should verify suspension components, particularly rear coil springs and bushes, which are common wear points on this model. Inspect brake discs and calipers for uneven wear, as minor issues can escalate without regular checks. Corrosion in underbody areas and exhaust system integrity should also be assessed, as these are vulnerable to age-related degradation. The absence of structural defects in MOT records is reassuring, but physical inspection remains critical for hidden issues.
