This 2012 Citroen has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 9,382 miles. The very low annual usage (2,837 miles/yr) is a major red flag for potential odometer fraud.
The vehicle shows only 9,382 miles over 14 years, significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, raising serious concerns about mileage integrity.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 9,382 miles over 14 years (May 2019–Jul 2025).
- Dangerous defect: Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below 1.6mm (Jul 2021).
- Recurring suspension advisories: Offside Front Shock absorbers leak (Jul 2021, Jul 2022).
- Brake failure and advisory: Major failure (Jul 2023) with related advisory (Jul 2023).
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 4-star safety rating.
- Valid MOT until 2026-07-09, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recurring major failures on critical safety systems (brakes, steering) since 2023.
- Immediate retest passes after failures show owner addressed issues promptly.
