2015 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · OV15 UAT

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. The most recent test in June 2025 at 83,067 miles identified multiple immediate attention items, including thin front brake pads and three tyres reaching the legal wear limit. While the car passed the test, the accumulation of wear-related faults suggests that the owner often defers essential maintenance until it nears an MOT failure threshold. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical low-urban use, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year over the eleven-year period. There is a steady progression in readings, moving from 58,524 miles in April 2021 to 83,067 miles in June 2025, showing no significant periods of unexplained or excessive mileage. This low annual mileage generally preserves the drivetrain, but it can also lead to rubber components perishing over time, as evidenced by the perished nearside rear tyre noted in the latest records. A buyer must specifically inspect the front suspension geometry, as the recurring reports of tyres worn on the edges in 2021 and 2025 point to persistent alignment issues or worn suspension bushes. The 2022 advisory regarding a badly worn clutch at 66,872 miles requires a physical test drive to ensure the component was replaced and is not nearing imminent failure. Given the thin brake pads flagged in 2025, the entire braking system should be checked for uneven disc wear or sticking calipers to ensure safety.
