The 2020 Citroën C4 Grandland Stourer Flair achieves an 88.4% first-time pass rate, comfortably ahead of the UK average of 80%, suggesting better-than-typical reliability for the age. However, 23.5% of vehicles have recorded a dangerous defect at some point, which is notably high and warrants a thorough pre-purchase inspection focused on brake and suspension systems.

These cars are running at modest mileage for their age (median 28,190 miles), yet still average 0.51 failures and 3.8 advisories per test, indicating that minor wear items and consumables are the main concern rather than structural problems. Before buying, insist on reviewing the full MOT history to understand the pattern of failures in that specific vehicle, since the dangerous defect rate suggests some examples have had serious issues despite the cohort's healthy overall pass rate.
