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

This 2008 Citroen has 24 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 22,562 miles. The mileage trajectory is highly suspicious, with periods of very low usage and a significant jump in early years.

The mileage shows a significant jump to 21,214 miles/year before Nov 2011, then drops to 590 miles/year before Feb 2013, and finally settles to a normal 6,577 miles/year.

Things to check

  • Dangerous brake failure on 2020-03-20 and 2020-03-21.
  • Dangerous tyre failure on 2020-03-20 and 2020-03-21.
  • Recurring major failures for lights (6 times) and windscreen (3 times).
  • Recurring major failures for engine/oil (2 times) and emissions (1 time).

Working in its favour

  • No recurring failures on the same critical system in the last 3 years.
  • All dangerous defects were immediately rectified and passed subsequent MOTs.
  • The vehicle has a consistent, albeit high, mileage history over its lifespan.
  • No recent advisories on the same component have been flagged in the last 2 years.
