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

This 2014 Citroen has 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 23,500 miles. The mileage history is also highly irregular, with a significant jump in usage followed by a prolonged period of very low use.

The vehicle shows a normal annual usage of ~6,977 miles/year until July 2023, but then recorded only 48 miles in the 12 months to September 2025, indicating a significant and unexplained change in usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring advisories on tyres (Jun 2022, Aug 2025), brakes (Jun 2019, Jul 2023), and suspension (Jul 2023) indicate chronic wear.
  • Unusually high mileage jump of 25,125 miles in 12 months before Jul 2023, followed by extremely low usage (48 miles in 12 months to Sep 2025).
  • Major failure for Nearside Rear Stop lamp (May 2017) and multiple subsequent advisories for the same system suggest ongoing electrical issues.
  • The 2020 MOT gap, combined with the highly variable mileage, raises serious questions about the vehicle's maintenance and true usage history.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 4-star safety rating.
  • Valid MOT until September 2026, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • No recorded failures on safety-critical systems like steering or emissions, which is a positive.
  • Consistent annual mileage of ~6,977 miles/year for the majority of its life, suggesting regular use.
