2017 Citroen C4 Grand Picasso 1.6L Diesel · RG60 MEG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a clean MOT pass on 11 December 2025 at 66,588 miles. This most recent result indicates that previous mechanical and consumable issues have been addressed, as no defects were recorded. While the history shows a pattern of intermittent failures, the trend has moved from significant neglect to consistent compliance over the last two years. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,400 miles per year. The data shows steady usage, with a notable 14,000-mile interval between the December 2022 and December 2024 tests. The jump from 30,119 miles in late 2022 to 44,327 miles in early 2024 suggests a period of more frequent driving, while the most recent 12,000-mile increase between late 2024 and late 2025 aligns with typical annual patterns. A history of recurring tyre and brake issues suggests a tendency toward reactive rather than preventative maintenance. The tester flagged multiple tyre failures, including exposed cords in December 2022 and tread depth/edge wear issues in early 2024. The January 2024 failure also highlighted worn anti-roll bar linkage ball joints and thin brake pads. Although these items appear resolved in the latest 2025 record, the frequency of these faults implies the owner often waits for components to reach the legal limit before replacement. A prospective buyer should focus an inspection on the suspension components and tyre condition. Given the previous failures of anti-roll bar linkages and the recurring reports of uneven tyre wear, a physical check of the suspension bushes, ball joints, and shock absorbers is necessary to ensure no further play has developed. Checking the remaining brake pad thickness and the condition of the brake discs is also advisable to confirm the 2025 pass reflects a thorough service rather than a superficial check.
