This 2008 Citroen has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 90,834 miles. While it has a valid MOT now, the past raises significant questions about its maintenance and true condition.
The vehicle shows a 4-year gap in mileage between 2011 and 2012, followed by suspiciously low annual usage (e.g., 241 miles in 2022-2023) and a significant drop in recent years.
Things to check
- Mileage anomaly: 4-year gap (2011-2012) and suspiciously low usage (e.g., 241 miles in 2022-2023).
- Recurring Steering Issue: Nearside Front Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint excessively worn (Jul 2024 advisory).
- Not ULEZ-compliant: Diesel
Working in its favour
- No recent MOT failures: The single failure in 2011 was immediately rectified.
- Consistent mileage: Average annual usage of 8,120 miles aligns with UK norms.
- Long MOT validity: Current MOT is valid until 2025-07-07, offering peace of mind.
- Euro NCAP Safety Rating: 4-star rating for a 2008 Citroen is a basic safety standard.
