2015 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · WT15 DXK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in February 2026 at 58,709 miles resulted in a pass despite several advisories, including thin front brake pads, a worn offside front tyre, and a defective wiper blade. These findings suggest the previous owner only addresses mechanical issues once they reach the point of MOT failure, rather than performing routine servicing between annual inspections. At 11 years old, the recorded mileage of 58,709 miles represents a low annual average of approximately 5,337 miles. However, there is a significant spike in usage between March 2024 and February 2026, where the car covered over 16,000 miles in just under two years. This sudden burst of activity, combined with the 2024 failure for both front tyres showing severe inner-edge wear, suggests the vehicle may have suffered from alignment issues or suspension component fatigue during that period. A buyer must specifically inspect the front suspension and wheel alignment. The 2024 failure for inner-edge wear on both front tyres is a classic symptom of incorrect geometry or worn suspension bushes and ball joints, which can rapidly degrade new rubber. Furthermore, the February 2026 advisory regarding thin front brake pads indicates that the braking system requires immediate attention. Given the recurring issues with defective wiper blades and deteriorated registration plates across multiple years, it is highly likely that basic consumable items have been consistently neglected by the previous keeper.
