2016 Citroen C4 1.2L Petrol · PL16 AAO

The Citroen C4 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 October 2025 at 56,905 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and this follows three consecutive clean passes in prior years. The vehicle shows no worsening faults and no recurring advisories across the available history. Recorded mileage sits at 56,905 against a 2016 build, an average of roughly 5,690 miles per year. The tester logged 46,521 miles on 27 October 2023, then 51,380 on 26 October 2024, and 56,905 by October 2025. Annual accumulation stayed near 4,800 to 5,500 miles with no abrupt jumps. A single failed test appears on 25 October 2024 at 51,380 miles yet the record lists no defects; the owner cleared it with a pass the next day, suggesting an administrative or presentational issue rather than mechanical neglect. The sparse, clean MOT file gives the buyer little to chase on paper. Low annual use over ten years can let brake calipers seize, tyres crack from age, and suspension bushes harden while standing. We advise a physical check of brake disc condition and caliper freedom, plus inspection of all four tyres for sidewall degradation and tread evenness. Structural corrosion and underbody integrity remain untested by the record beyond the pass verdicts. A ramp inspection of subframes, sills, and exhaust mounts is prudent given the car's age. The clean history implies reasonable upkeep, but the 2024 same-day fail-pass pair warrants confirmation the vehicle was genuinely presented correctly.
