2007 Citroen C4 1.6L Petrol · WM07 AYP

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the most recent MOT history. The test conducted on 18 October 2023 at 83,110 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating the car met the minimum safety standards. While the history shows two failures in both 2022 and 2023, these were rectified immediately to secure passes, suggesting the owner addresses identified faults rather than allowing them to persist. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 19-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,374 miles per year. Between the September 2021 test at 71,236 miles and the November 2022 test at 79,315 miles, the car covered 8,079 miles in fourteen months. This low usage often reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, but it increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber components and fluids. The gaps between tests are consistent, though the recent mileage shows minimal movement between failures and successful re-tests. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to degradation during low-mileage use. Given the vehicle's age, inspect the chassis for structural integrity and corrosion, particularly around the sills and floor pans, as MOT tests only examine visible areas. Check suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or per, as these can perish when a car sits for long periods. Additionally, examine the brakes for binding calipers or pitted discs, as low usage can lead to brake components seizing despite the low recorded mileage.
