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

This 2009 Citroen has 22 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 26,518 miles. The vehicle's age and recurring corrosion issues make it a high-risk purchase.

A critical mileage anomaly exists: mileage decreased from 58,650 miles in Dec 2016 to 40,379 miles in Nov 2017, suggesting possible odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Dec 2016 (58,650 mi) and Nov 2017 (40,379 mi) — possible odometer tamperin
  • Mileage decreased from 58,650 miles (Dec 2016) to 40,379 miles (Nov 2017) — possible odometer tampering.
  • Recurring major failures in suspension (3 times) and steering (1 time) across multiple MOTs.
  • Recurring major failures in brakes (1 time) and windscreen (1 time) across multiple MOTs.

Working in its favour

  • MOT valid until 2026-11-21, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
  • No recorded Cat N/S write-off markers on DVLA data.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 4/5 stars (2017) suggests acceptable safety features.
