2016 Citroen C4 Cactus 1.2L Petrol · NK66 PNE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history reveals a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. The most recent test in September 2025 at 47,382 miles identified an advisory for a worn nearside front suspension arm pin or bush. While the vehicle passed this inspection, it follows a pattern of mechanical components being addressed only after they reach failure thresholds. The overall trend appears stable but suggests that suspension components are beginning to age and will require attention soon. At ten years old, the recorded mileage of 47,382 miles is significantly low, averaging only approximately 4,700 miles per year. This low usage explains the relatively slow wear on the braking system but introduces risks related to degradation of rubber components. There is a notable mileage gap between October 2022 and October 2023 where the car covered only 3,794 miles. This period of intermittent use often correlates with the perishing and cracking found on the nearside rear tyre noted during the October 2022 failure. A buyer should closely inspect the front suspension geometry, as the worn bush flagged in the latest MOT can affect handling and uneven tyre wear. The history shows recurring issues with brake components, with the vehicle failing in 2023 due to thin pads and discs after receiving an advisory for pads in 2022. While these were likely replaced, the buyer should check for caliper sticking or uneven wear. Furthermore, the previous failure regarding an inoperative engine management light in 2022 indicates a past electrical or sensor fault that should be verified via diagnostic scan to ensure no hidden codes remain in the system.
