2024 Citroen E-Spacetourer YOU Electric · WN74 VJM

The most recent MOT, carried out on 8 January 2026, was passed with no recorded defects, and the preceding test on 20 October 2025 also returned a clean result. With two consecutive passes and no advisory items, the maintenance record appears stable and there is no evidence of deteriorating condition or emerging faults over the short‑term MOT interval. The vehicle is a 2024 Citroën e‑SpaceTourer You with a recorded mileage of 3,947 miles, equating to roughly 1,974 miles per annum. This is considerably below the typical UK average of 7‑10 thousand miles per year for a family MPV, suggesting that the car has been driven lightly or has spent extended periods stationary. Low utilisation generally reduces wear on tyre tread, brake pads and discs, and drivetrain components, but it can also allow moisture to settle in seals and cause rubber to perish if the car has been standing for long stretches. For a prospective buyer the first visual inspection should focus on the condition of the tyres; check the tread depth, sidewall integrity and look for any cracking, dry rot or bulging that can develop with age even when mileage is low. Examine the wheel rims for corrosion, especially around the mounting bolts, and verify that the tyre pressure matches the manufacturer’s specification. Inspect the 12‑volt auxiliary battery for signs of sulfation or leakage, and consider having its cranking voltage and state of charge tested, as batteries left idle for months can lose capacity. Look at the suspension bushings, coil springs and anti‑roll bar links for any cracking, oil staining or excessive play, and ensure the steering feels tight without any clunk or knock when the wheel is turned at low speed. Given the vehicle’s age of just over two years, confirm that the service book contains stamps for the scheduled 12‑month or 20 000‑mile service, and that the high‑voltage battery cooling system, inverter coolant and brake fluid have been replaced according to the manufacturer’s calendar intervals. During a short test drive listen for any unusual noises from the brakes – such as shudder or squeal that could indicate surface corrosion on the discs or uneven pad wear – and feel for any pull or vibration that might reveal binding calipers or worn suspension components. Finally, verify that all electronic functions, including the regenerative braking system, infotainment display and driver‑assist features, operate correctly, and check the exhaust and emissions system for any leaks or fault codes, even though the e‑SpaceTourer is primarily electric, as the auxiliary ICE components still require periodic inspection.
