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 13 MOT tests on record with a 77% pass rate and 14,789 miles. While most issues were resolved, the sheer volume of advisories suggests a car that has been maintained reactively rather than proactively.
The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 7,888 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, though annual usage varied significantly between 2019 and 2022.
Things to check
- Recurring advisories on tyres (8 flags) and brakes (6 flags) across multiple tests indicate chronic wear.
- Emissions system advisories (3 flags) in 2020, 2021, and 2024 suggest ongoing engine management issues.
- Suspension advisories (3 flags) in 2020, 2021, and 2024 point to consistent wear and tear.
- Two major failures (lights, anti-roll bar) in 2018 and 2023, respectively, highlight past maintenance gaps.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until October 2026, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
- Consistent mileage averaging 7,888 miles/year, aligning with typical UK usage.
- No DANGEROUS defects recorded, indicating no immediate safety-critical failures.
- All major failures were promptly rectified and passed retests, showing owner responsiveness.
