2017 Citroen C4 Cactus 1.2L Petrol · NL17 KXT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile despite two instances of test failure. The most recent inspection conducted on 30 October 2025 at 99,167 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a failure just one day prior. This suggests the previous owner was proactive in rectifying any issues immediately to ensure the vehicle remained legal. The lack of advisories in the 2024 and 2025 tests indicates that the car currently meets mechanical standards without pending maintenance concerns. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per annum. The record shows a clear progression of 14,542 miles between August 2023 and November 2024, followed by another 16,796 miles between November 2024 and October 2025. This steady usage indicates regular operation rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for maintaining engine seals and braking components. There are no significant gaps in the testing history that would suggest the car was neglected for years. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components most prone to wear at the six-figure mileage mark. While the MOT record is clean of structural corrosion, the high mileage warrants a close check of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for leaks or perished. Given the failures in 2023 and 2025, which were likely related to minor items like bulbs or wiper blades given the immediate passes, the buyer should still verify tyre tread depth and consistency. Verify the braking system for signs of binding calipers or thin discs, as these are common areas of wear on Citroen models of this age.
