2013 Citroen DS4 2.0L Diesel · RO13 VEB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a clean MOT pass on 15 November 2024 at 98,331 miles. While the record shows a failure exactly one day prior at the same mileage, the lack of recorded defects suggests a potential administrative error or a minor component issue that was rectified immediately. Since the 2021 test, the car has consistently passed inspections without any recorded advisories or failures, indicating that the previous owners have maintained a high standard of mechanical upkeep. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year. Between June 2021 at 68,670 miles and November 2024 at 98,331 miles, the car covered roughly 30,000 miles, reflecting steady rather than excessive usage. The jump of 12,374 miles between November 2023 and November 2024 shows a slight increase in annual use but remains well within parameters that prevent excessive wear on rubber components and drivetrain assemblies compared to high-mileage examples. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on common Citroen wear points, as the MOT history does not flag recurring weaknesses. Given the age and mileage, inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or sagging, as these often outlast the MOT tolerance threshold. Since no brake issues were ever noted, check for uneven wear on the pads or excessive thinning on the discs. The structural integrity appears sound based on the lack of past failures, but a standard check for corrosion on the sills and wheel arches remains necessary for a vehicle of this era.
