This 2015 C4 Grand Picasso has a first-time MOT pass rate of just 47.7%, significantly below the UK average of 80%, which is a red flag for potential buyers.

Before buying, request the full MOT history to identify which specific components fail repeatedly, as that will tell you whether you're looking at a cheap fix or a money pit.

What to check before buying a 2015 Citroen C4 Grand Picasso Vtr + E HDI

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
