2014 Citroen C4 1.6L Diesel · YP14 VCN

The vehicle holds a current MOT certificate valid until May 2027, following a clean pass on 11 May 2026 at 123,513 miles. This latest result indicates an improving maintenance trend, as the car cleared the inspection without any recorded defects or advisories. This stands in contrast to the previous two years, where the vehicle failed its initial inspections due to significant component wear, suggesting that the current owner has addressed the underlying mechanical issues identified in earlier cycles. The recorded mileage of 123,513 over twelve years aligns with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,300 miles per annum. The accumulation remains consistent, with roughly 12,000 miles added between the 2024 and 2025 tests and a similar increase leading up to the most recent inspection. There are no signs of prolonged periods of inactivity, which often lead to seized calipers or perished rubber components, and the steady usage suggests the drivetrain has been kept in regular operation. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension and steering geometry, as these areas have been recurring points of failure. Although the track rod ends and anti-roll bar linkages were rectified during the 2024 and 2025 failures, these components are subject to high stress on this chassis and warrant a close check for play or knocking noises. You should also verify the condition of the front shock absorbers, as their damping performance was flagged as reduced in 2025. While the current test is clear, confirm that the supplementary restraint system warning light illuminates and extinguishes correctly upon ignition, ensuring the electrical fault recorded in 2025 was permanently resolved rather than bypassed.
