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

This 2003 Citroen has 18 MOT tests on record with a 61% pass rate and 50,535 miles. While mileage is consistent, the high annual usage and lack of recent MOT validity present significant risks.

Mileage is high at 12,147 miles/year, with a notable 0-mileage reading on 2008-03-03, but overall trajectory is consistent with no fraud.

Things to check

  • 7 major failures across 18 MOT tests (Mar 2007, Mar 2012, Mar 2013, Mar 2014, Jan 2015, Dec 2015) indicate persistent electrical issues.
  • Consistent high annual mileage (12,147 mi/yr) suggests heavy commercial or high-use driving, accelerating wear.
  • MOT expired 2017-01-19; vehicle is currently on SORN, meaning no recent safety checks.
  • Recurring advisories for brakes, tyres, and wipers across multiple tests (e.g., Feb 2010, Mar 2012, Jan 2015) suggest chronic neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 7 historical failures
  • Mileage trajectory is consistent with no anomalies, indicating honest odometer readings.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
  • The vehicle has a consistent service history, albeit with a high mileage profile.
