2016 DS DS4 1.2L Petrol · PY16 ABF

The MOT history for this 2016 DS DS4 presents an exceptionally clean record, with no defects recorded at any test, including the most recent pass in September 2025 at 46,133 miles. This indicates a stable and well-maintained vehicle with no recurring issues flagged by testers. The overall roadworthiness status is positive, suggesting consistent care and no emerging mechanical or structural concerns. The recorded mileage of 46,133 miles over approximately ten years equates to around 4,600 miles annually, which is below average for a vehicle of this age. The mileage progression shows steady use: from 33,694 miles in December 2022 to 37,660 in October 2023, then a larger jump to 44,819 in October 2024, followed by a modest increase to 46,133 in September 2025. The gap between October 2024 and September 2025 saw only about 1,300 miles, indicating lighter use in that period. This low overall mileage suggests the engine, transmission, and drivetrain have experienced less wear than typical, but the inconsistent annual mileage could imply periods of standing, which may affect battery health and tyre condition. Despite the clean MOT record, a pre-purchase inspection should focus on components prone to age-related deterioration rather than mileage. Check for corrosion on suspension springs, brake lines, and the exhaust system, as these can degrade over time. Inspect rubber bushes, anti-roll bar links, and shock absorbers for signs of perishing or leaks. Brake discs and pads should be examined for wear, and the battery tested for capacity, as infrequent use can lead to discharge. The absence of advisories is reassuring, but a thorough physical check is recommended to confirm the vehicle's true mechanical state.
