2017 DS DS4 1.6L Diesel · SY67 PBF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistently clean inspection history. The most recent test conducted in January 2026 at 32,364 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, indicating that the car currently meets all legal safety standards. While a failure occurred in December 2024 at 26,617 miles, the immediate pass just three days later suggests the owner was proactive in rectifying minor issues without any underlying mechanical degradation. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,600 miles per year. Between November 2022 and November 2023, the car covered only 2,350 miles, suggesting long periods of stationary or very short-distance trips. This low usage rate typically results in less wear on the drivetrain, engine components, and suspension bushings. However, long intervals of standing can sometimes lead to secondary issues such as seized brake calipers, perished rubber seals, or degraded fluid quality, which are not always fully captured by a standard MOT emissions test. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-mileage age patterns. Check for flat spots on the tyres and signs of corrosion on the brake discs from the vehicle sitting idle. Inspect the rubber components in the suspension for cracking or drying, which occurs despite lack of physical wear. Given the low mileage, verify the service history to ensure annual oil changes were performed based on time rather than distance, as this is critical for engine longevity on a low-use vehicle.
