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

This 2011 Citroen has 14 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 28,932 miles. The mileage trajectory shows significant anomalies, including periods of very low usage, which raises serious questions about its maintenance and true condition.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage, averaging 3,947 miles/year, with significant anomalies including a 12,016-mile jump before Nov 2015 and a 14,505-mile jump before Nov 2016, and periods of very low usage.

Things to check

  • Mileage anomalies: Unusually high jumps (Nov 2015, Nov 2016) followed by suspiciously low usage (May 2018, Jun 2019, Dec 2020, Dec 2021, Jan 2023, Jan 2024, Jan 2025, Feb

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 4-star safety rating.
  • Valid MOT until February 2027: The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate, indicating it is roadworthy for the next three years.
  • No recent major failures: The most recent MOT in Feb 2026 passed without any major failures, showing the owner addressed immediate issues.
  • Consistent low mileage: The extremely low annual mileage (3,947 mi/yr) suggests minimal wear and tear on engine components, potentially extending service intervals.
