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

This 2013 Citroen has 15 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 64,512 miles. While mileage is consistent, the extensive history of wear items and suspension issues suggests a high-maintenance vehicle.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,116 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but a significant 1,534-mile period between Mar 2020 and Jul 2021 warrants clarification.

Things to check

  • Recurring major failures in suspension (Jun 2022) and lights (Jun 2023) indicate structural neglect.
  • Extensive recurring advisories for brakes (14 items) and tyres (13 items) across multiple tests.
  • The 1,534-mile period between Mar 2020 and Jul 2021 is unusually low for a diesel.
  • The 'just passed MOT' tactic is evident with the Jun 2023 and Jul 2024 failures immediately followed by passes.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 5 historical failures
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 9,116 miles/year, indicating regular use.
  • Valid MOT until July 2026, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
