2007 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · WU57 ABX

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean pass on September 26, 2025, at 72,625 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record shows a recurring pattern of immediate failures followed by successful passes. In both 2024 and 2025, the car failed its initial test but passed within a week upon retest. This suggests that the owner is proactive in addressing specific defects once they are flagged by the tester, rather than allowing mechanical issues to persist. At 19 years old, the C4 reflects an exceptionally low mileage, averaging approximately 3,822 miles per year. The data shows consistent intervals of use, with 7,844 miles covered between August 2023 and September 2024, and another 8,971 miles between September 2024 and September 2025. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber-based parts, seals, and bushings which can dry out over long periods of low use. Because the most recent tests recorded no advisories or defects, the physical inspection should focus on components prone to age rather than high-mile wear. A buyer should check for structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches, as older Citroens are susceptible to rust. Given the previous failures that required a retest, it is vital to inspect the brake calipers for binding and examine the condition of the suspension bushes, as these are common sources of minor MOT failures on this model.
