2016 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · NV16 OFY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of recent MOT tests. The most recent test conducted in September 2025 at 54,921 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating the car currently meets minimum regulatory standards. Following a single failure in September 2023, the vehicle has achieved two consecutive annual passes without advisories, suggesting that the previous owner addressed any necessary repairs promptly and maintained a consistent level of mechanical upkeep. The mileage pattern is consistently low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,500 miles per year. Between September 2022 at 44,009 miles and September 2024 at 50,103 miles, the car covered 6,094 miles, while the most recent year-long gap between tests saw an additional 4,818 miles. This low usage often reduces the mechanical strain on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can occasionally lead to dry rot in rubber seals or corrosion if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. While the digital record is clean, a buyer should still inspect the vehicle for common issues associated with low-mileage older cars. Focus on the structural integrity of the chassis and sills for surface corrosion, as the MOT tests only flag rust once it becomes a structural concern. Given the low mileage, check the brake discs for pitting and verify the condition of the suspension bushes for cracking, as these components age through time regardless of distance driven. The lack of recorded advisories in the last two years suggests the vehicle is in good overall condition, but a physical check of the underbody remains necessary to confirm no hidden oxidation has developed.
