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

This 2009 Citroen has 24 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 49,280 miles. The vehicle's age and recurring issues make it a high-risk purchase.

A critical mileage decrease is evident between Jun 2018 (96,469 mi) and Jun 2019 (81,388 mi), suggesting possible odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Jun 2018 (96,469 mi) and Jun 2019 (81,388 mi) — possible odometer tamperin
  • Mileage decreased from 96,469 mi (Jun 2018) to 81,388 mi (Jun 2019) — potential odometer fraud.
  • Brakes failed twice (Aug 2021, Aug 2022) and have recurring advisories for binding — a serious safety concern.
  • Emissions failed (Aug 2024) and have recurring advisories since 2014, indicating a chronic issue.

Working in its favour

  • Current MOT is valid until August 2026, indicating it recently passed a test.
  • No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT (Aug 2025).
  • The vehicle has a consistent, albeit low, annual mileage history since 2019.
  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) or write-off markers in the provided data.
