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

This 2016 Citroen has 9 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 28,940 miles. The recent MOT pass in August 2025 followed a failure and carries advisories for critical wear items.

The vehicle shows consistent annual usage, averaging 7,538 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 28,940 miles recorded over 10 years.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS brake failures on 2021-11-30 (n/s and o/s front) indicate a history of brake neglect.
  • Recurring advisories for tyres and suspension across multiple tests suggest ongoing wear and maintenance needs.
  • Major failures for lights and windscreen washer in 2021-11-30 and 2025-08-14 highlight past electrical and fluid system issues.
  • The 2022 MOT gap, though minor, suggests a period of unrecorded use or potential neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until August 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, normal annual mileage (7,538 mi/yr) suggests regular, predictable use.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation in the provided MOT history.
  • Recent MOT pass (Aug 2025) after a failure, indicating the owner addressed immediate issues.
