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

This 2001 Citroen has 7 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 47,064 miles. While mileage is consistent, the vehicle's age and past failures warrant careful consideration.

The vehicle shows consistent annual usage, averaging 11,739 miles/year, with a notable 2007 service gap and a recent 1-year period of very low mileage (2019).

Things to check

  • 2007 MOT gap indicates potential SORN or off-road use, raising unknown history.
  • Offside Front Suspension arm excessive play (Oct 2006) and CV joint gaiter split (Oct 2006) indicate recurring structural wear.
  • Front brake disc worn (Sep 2005) is an active advisory, suggesting imminent replacement needs.
  • Vehicle is 25 years old with a 2007 MOT gap, significantly increasing age-related wear and maintenance.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 11,739 miles/year, indicating regular use.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting current roadworthiness.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 4/5 stars (2017) provides a level of safety assurance.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or suspicious mileage patterns.
