2015 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · NK65 XST

The Citroen C1 presents a strong and consistently improving roadworthiness profile. The most recent test, conducted on 27 April 2026 at 64,936 miles, passed with zero defects recorded. This clean sheet follows a pattern of resolving minor issues, indicating a stable and well-maintained vehicle under its current ownership. The car has moved from advisories on tyres and brakes in previous years to a fully defect-free status, suggesting attentive routine servicing. The mileage accumulation is notably low for an eleven-year-old city car. Between the June 2022 test at 44,445 miles and the April 2026 test at 64,936 miles, the vehicle covered approximately 20,491 miles over nearly four years. That equates to just over 5,000 miles annually, pointing to light urban use or extended periods of inactivity. The MOT record itself shows no sudden spikes or suspicious gaps in testing frequency, with annual tests consistently booked around the late June or late April window, confirming regular, if minimal, annual use. The 2024 test flagged all four tyres for cracking, perishing, and wear on the edges, alongside the 2023 test highlighting worn front brake discs and thin front brake pads. Both issues appear to have been rectified, as the 2025 and 2026 tests are completely clean. A prospective buyer should still physically inspect the sidewalls of all four tyres for age-related perishing, regardless of tread depth, and check the condition of the front brake discs and pads for any uneven scoring or lipping. Given the low mileage and city-car usage, the rear brake drums and handbrake linkage merit a quick check for seizure or corrosion, a common issue on lightly driven vehicles.
