2009 Citroen C1 1.0L Petrol · YX09 YLG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a developing trend of age-related wear and corrosion. In the most recent test in March 2025 at 65,097 miles, the car passed with noted corrosion on the rear axle beam and a binding nearside rear service brake. This represents a slight decline from the clean record seen in previous years, suggesting that the vehicle's components are beginning to fatigue despite the relatively low annual mileage. At approximately 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 65,097 miles is significantly low, averaging roughly 3,800 miles per year. This low-mileage suggests the car has seen light use, which can often lead to the degradation of rubber components and the seizing of stationary mechanical parts. The data shows a consistent interval of annual testing, with roughly 7,000 miles covered between November 2021 and March 2025, indicating a stable usage pattern that does not🇯 high-stress wear and tear on the drivetrain. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and braking systems. The 2023 test highlighted worn bushes on both front lower suspension arms, and the 2025 report confirmed corrosion on the rear axle beam; these areas must be checked to ensure the rust has not compromised the structural integrity. Furthermore, the recurring issue of the nearside rear brake binding noted in both 2023 and 2025, combined with the marginal parking brake efficiency recorded in 2021, indicates the braking system requires a professional adjustment or major overhaul to ensure consistent performance and prevent uneven pad wear.
