2014 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · PF14 LNP

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history shows a worsening trend regarding recurring mechanical wear-related faults. While the most recent test in July 2025 at 37,420 miles passed, the tester again flagged worn front anti-roll bar linkages and a corroded brake pipe. These specific issues appeared consistently in both 2023 and 2024, indicating that the previous owner was addressing faults reactively rather than performing preventative maintenance. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,118 miles per year. The record shows a clean period between 2021 and 2022, where the car covered only 3,002 miles to reach 33,103 without any defects. However, the usage has increased slightly since 2022, with over 4,300 miles covered in three years, which likely explains why age-related corrosion and component wear are now emerging despite the low total figure on the odometer. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the braking system and suspension components. The recurring failure of the front brake pipe across three consecutive tests suggests persistent corrosion that may require replacement to prevent future fluid leaks. Additionally, the front inner brake discs were noted as pitted and scored in 2024, and the 2024 test highlighted tyres reaching the end of their legal life. The front anti-roll bar linkages should be checked for play, as they have been a persistent defect for three years.
