2017 Citroen C1 1.2L Petrol · MT67 AAY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with the most recent MOT on 2025-11-13 at 31,955 miles recording a pass and no defects. The maintenance trend shows stability, as the prior tests in 2024 and 2023 also passed or failed without recorded issues. However, the repetition of failures in 2024 and 2023 at identical mileages (30,880 and 29,361) raises questions about potential inconsistencies in testing or minor technical oversights. No structural, brake, or suspension defects were flagged in the latest assessment, indicating no immediate mechanical risks. The vehicle’s mileage of 31,955 miles over nine years equates to an average of 3,551 miles annually, significantly below the UK’s typical annual usage. This low mileage suggests infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on components like the battery, engine seals, and brake systems due to lack of regular operation. The MOT records show consistent annual testing, with no gaps exceeding 12 months, reflecting a maintenance routine but offering no insight into non-MOT-related servicing. A buyer should inspect the vehicle’s suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers for signs of corrosion or binding, as low mileage can mask wear in these areas. The absence of recorded defects in the latest test is reassuring, but the repeated failures without explanations warrant scrutiny of the vehicle’s electrical systems and exhaust emissions. Pay particular attention to the battery’s age and condition, as well as the integrity of the exhaust system, which may degrade during periods of inactivity. No structural rust or major mechanical faults were noted in the MOT history, but physical inspection remains critical to confirm the vehicle’s overall state.
