Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. This Citroen C4 ha
If you are considering this vehicle, you must verify that the repairs listed in the September 2025 MOT failure—specifically the coil spring, drive shaft boot, and ball joint—have been completed to a professional standard. Given the repeated tyre issues (worn edges and exposed cords), check the current tread depth and alignment of all four tyres immediately.
Negotiate the price based on the recent frequency of failures. Ask for a detailed service history to see if the suspension and braking components, which have appeared on multiple MOTs, have been regularly inspected. A lack of documented servicing alongside these MOT advisories would be a significant red flag.
As a 1.6L diesel, this C4 is likely to offer decent fuel economy for long-distance driving, though actual costs will depend on driving style and load. Tax and insurance groups for this era of Citroen C4 are typically moderate, making it accessible for many drivers.
Maintenance costs may be higher than average due to the recurring nature of suspension and tyre-related issues seen in the records. Expect to budget for regular replacement of consumables like brake discs, which were noted as worn in October 2024, and suspension components.
A thorough inspection of the front suspension is essential. The MOT history shows a fractured nearside front coil spring and a worn offside front ball joint in 2025, so check for any knocks or rattles when driving over bumps. Inspect the CV boots carefully; the nearside front boot was noted as split in 2025.
Examine the tyres closely. The vehicle has a history of tyres being worn on the edges or having exposed cords. This can indicate an alignment or tracking issue that needs addressing. Finally, check the condition of the shock absorbers, as the 2024 MOT recorded a serious fluid leak on the nearside front unit.
This 2013 white Citroen C4 diesel has covered 65,130 miles since its registration in September 2013. While the mileage is relatively low for its age, the MOT history shows significant issues, including a major failure in September 2025 involving multiple tyres, a fractured coil spring, and a split CV boot. The vehicle has experienced two MOT failures in the last two years, indicating recent maintenance challenges.
