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 18 MOT tests on record with a 61% pass rate and 31,107 miles. While many failures were immediately rectified, the repeated advisories for brakes, tyres, and suspension components indicate a history of reactive maintenance.
The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 7,691 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but shows a significant dip in recent years (e.g., 4,233 miles in 2022).
Things to check
- Recurring advisories for brakes (7 times) and tyres (5 times) across multiple tests indicate chronic wear.
- Multiple recurring failures for the CV boot (4 tests) and suspension arm (2 tests) suggest structural neglect.
- The 2017-03-17 test failed for a corroded exhaust mount and uneven rear brake application, pointing to poor maintenance.
- The 2025-12-14 test had advisories for a shock absorber and suspension arm, indicating current wear items.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 4-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 7 historical failures
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until 2026-12-14, providing immediate peace of mind.
- Mileage is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 7,691 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
