About the 2014 AIXAM CROSSLINE
The 2014 AIXAM CROSSLINE is a city car with a 400cc diesel engine. 97 of these vehicles were MOT tested in 2024, making it a rare model on UK roads. It sits in the bottom 98% of 2014 cars for MOT pass rates.
With an average of 28,881 miles at 10 years old, AIXAM CROSSLINE owners tend to use this car less than the typical driver. Very low mileage could mean the car has been garaged or used only for short trips, which can cause its own issues like battery drain and moisture buildup.
2014 AIXAM CROSSLINE Fuel Costs

Expect around 55 mpg in mixed driving, which works out to roughly £905 per year at current diesel prices of 148p per litre (based on 7,400 miles per year). Diesel cars of this age should have their DPF (diesel particulate filter) checked, as replacements can be costly.
