Buyer's Guide & Inspection Advisory
Expert automotive synthesis from historical MOT defect records and market benchmarks.
Our Verdict
A sensible purchase for those seeking a relatively recent, low-mileage hatchback. The clean MOT history suggests no immediate mechanical or safety concerns have been flagged in recent inspections.
When inspecting this specific 1.2L PureTech model, verify the service history to ensure oil changes have been performed strictly according to manufacturer intervals, as this is vital for the timing belt system. Check the colour-matched blue paintwork for any signs of stone chips or scratches that may have occurred during its time on the road.
Negotiate based on the remaining manufacturer warranty, if applicable, and confirm if any major scheduled services are due soon. Since the MOT history shows no defects, focus your inspection on the interior condition and the responsiveness of the PureTech engine during a test drive.
The 1200cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, likely placing it in a lower insurance group and tax band compared to larger capacity alternatives. Fuel economy should be competitive for a modern hatchback of this size.
Typical maintenance costs for a Citroen of this age will include standard consumables like tyres, brakes, and wipers. Expect an estimated annual running cost to reflect moderate fuel usage and routine servicing requirements.
While the MOT history for SN21CTL is clean with no recorded defects in 2024 or 2025, you should still inspect the tyre tread depth and brake pad wear, as these are common items that can lead to future MOT advisories.
Specifically for the PureTech engine, it is prudent to inspect the engine bay for any signs of fluid leaks. Although no failures are recorded, checking the condition of the drive belt is a standard precaution for this engine type to ensure long-term reliability.
This 2021 Blue Citroen C4 Sense PureTech S/S has covered 48,809 miles since its registration in August 2021. The vehicle has undergone two MOT tests, with the most recent in July 2025, both resulting in passes with no defects recorded. Given its age and current mileage, it represents a modern petrol option with a documented history of passing inspections without failure.
No aggregate MOT data is available for the Citroen C4 Sense PureTech S/S to provide a specific reliability trend.
