2015 Citroen C1 1.2L Petrol · WK65 YBA

The 2015 Citroen C1 presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 9 December 2025 at 39,264 miles with zero defects recorded. That result is the strongest in the vehicle's entire history. The preceding test on 11 December 2024 at 37,513 miles was also completely clear, meaning the car has now recorded two consecutive flawless MOTs. This pattern suggests the owner addressed the tyre deterioration that plagued earlier years, and the vehicle is currently in sound mechanical and structural order. The mileage profile tells a clear story of very light use. Covering just 39,264 miles over roughly eleven years equates to approximately 3,569 miles per year, well below the UK annual average. The progression between tests is steady and unremarkable: 2,416 miles between December 2023 and December 2024, and 1,751 miles between December 2024 and December 2025. There are no sudden jumps or suspicious gaps in the record. Such low annual accumulation means suspension components, brake discs, and drivetrain parts have experienced minimal stress, though prolonged periods of standing can cause its own issues, particularly with tyre perishing and brake surface corrosion. The historical advisory pattern is almost exclusively tyre-related and now appears fully resolved. Between December 2021 and December 2023, the car failed or was flagged repeatedly for perished and worn tyres across multiple axles: the offside front was worn to 2.5mm at its lowest point in December 2021, and by December 2023 both front tyres and the offside rear were flagged for cracking and perishing. These recurring tyre advisories across three consecutive tests suggest the previous rubber was aged and likely original or near-original equipment. The clean passes in 2024 and 2025 indicate a comprehensive tyre replacement was carried out, which is a positive sign of responsible ownership. A buyer should still inspect the tyre date codes in person to confirm all four are from the same recent batch and verify there is no uneven wear that could point to alignment or suspension bush wear. Given the low mileage and urban nature of the C1, check the brake calipers for binding and the rear drums or discs for surface corrosion from standing. Examine the underside for any structural corrosion on the sills, subframe, and mounting points, as even low-mileage cars can deteriorate if stored in damp conditions. The clean MOT record is encouraging, but a physical inspection of these areas will confirm whether the documented care translates to genuine mechanical condition.
