This 2016 Citroen has 12 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 26,082 miles. The significant mileage discrepancy in 2019 is a major concern.

The mileage trajectory shows a critical 9,872-mile decrease between 26,082 miles on 30 Jan 2019 and 16,210 miles on 31 Jan 2019, indicating a significant data anomaly or potential odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • Mileage anomaly: 9,872-mile decrease on 30 Jan 2019 retest, highly suspicious.
  • Recurring brake issues: Advisory on 25 Jan 2021 escalated to DANGEROUS on 28 Jan 2022.
  • Dangerous CV boot failure: Split boot on 30 Jan 2019, a serious safety defect.
  • Persistent lighting issues: Recurring headlamp aim and stop lamp advisories.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-11-22, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent recent mileage: 53,921 miles in Nov 2025, showing no recent anomalies.
  • No major structural corrosion: MOT history shows no recurring major chassis issues.
  • Relatively low mileage: 26,082 miles in Jan 2019, suggesting light use.
