AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2012 Citroen has 12 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 21,464 miles. While it has a clean recent pass, the mileage anomaly and lack of recent MOT validity require thorough investigation.

The vehicle shows a 14-year gap in recorded mileage, with only 21,464 miles recorded between Jan 2012 and Sep 2018, followed by a suspiciously low 264 miles between Oct 2022 and Jul 2023.

Things to check

  • Mileage anomaly: 14-year gap in recorded mileage (Jan 2012 to Sep 2018) and suspiciously low usage (340 mi/yr) from Oct 2022 to Jul 2023.
  • MOT Expiry Date: 2024-07-21 (over 2 years ago) — vehicle is currently not validly MOT'd.
  • Recurring Brake Disc Advisory: 9 advisories across 4 tests (Sep 2016, Sep 2017, Sep 2018, Sep 2020) — consistent wear pattern.
  • Recurring CV Boot Advisory: 2 advisories (Sep 2016, Sep 2017) — potential future repair.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 4-star safety rating.
  • Recent MOT Pass: Vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 2023-07-22, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No Recurring Major Failures: Despite advisories, no major failures have recurred on the same system.
  • Consistent Annual Mileage: Once past the initial 14-year gap, annual mileage has been consistent (6,236 mi/yr).
