2018 Citroen C4 Grand Picasso 1.6L Diesel · NX18 MLF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on November 25, 2025, at 72,032 miles. This result shows a trend of immediate rectification following a significant failure just one day prior at 72,025 miles. While the failure revealed multiple critical braking issues, including a thin nearside rear pad and binding calipers on both rear sides, the subsequent pass indicates the owner addressed these safety-critical defects promptly to bring the car back to legal standards. At eight years old with 72,032 miles recorded, the Citroen has averaged approximately 9,000 miles per year, which aligns closely with typical national averages for a family-oriented MPV. The record shows consistent annual testing with regular intervals of roughly 11,000 miles covered between the 2024 and 2025 tests and another 11,400 miles between 2023 and 2024. This steady usage suggests regular operation rather than long periods of stagnation that could lead to component degradation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the rear braking system and front suspension geometry. The November 2025 failure highlighted both binding rear calipers and excessive wear on the pads, which often points to seized slider pins or uneven piston movement. Furthermore, the records from 2022 and 2024 repeatedly flagged tyres worn prematurely on the inner edges or cracking. This recurring pattern of edge wear suggests alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that should be verified to prevent further unnecessary tyre replacement costs.
