2018 Citroen C4 Cactus 1.2L Petrol · RO67 UOG

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward more frequent mechanical and consumable minor faults. The most recent test in December 2025 at 75,841 miles identified three defects including an inoperative offside rear plate lamp, a perished nearside rear tyre, and a broken exhaust mounting bracket. These issues represent a regression from the clean record achieved in December 2024, suggesting that while the car is functional, it requires immediate attention to secondary wear-related components. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per year. The data shows steady accumulation from 22,003 miles in late 2021 to 75,841 miles in late 2025, with no evidence of long-term storage or sudden spikes in usage between annual inspections. This regular usage profile suggests a typical commuting pattern, which aligns with the gradual wear observed on rubber components and braking systems seen throughout the MOT history. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the suspension and alignment, as the record reveals recurring issues of uneven tyre wear. In 2021, 2023, and 2025, the tester flagged tyres worn to the limit or on specific edges, which often indicates poor tracking geometry or worn suspension bushes. Furthermore, the 2022 advisory regarding thin brake pads and the 2025 broken exhaust bracket indicate that the owner has historically addressed components only after reaching a failure point. A thorough check of the exhaust system for vibration-related damage is necessary to ensure the bracket failure is not beyond simple repair.
