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 67% pass rate and 16,770 miles. While mileage is low, the pattern of issues suggests ongoing maintenance needs.

The vehicle shows very low annual usage, averaging only 5,309 miles per year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 3,130 miles between Apr 2025 and Apr 2026).

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: 3 test failures within 12 months (Apr 2023 – Apr 2024)
  • Recurring major failures in bodywork (May 2020, 2021, 2022) and lights (May 2020, 2021, 2022) indicate structural neglect.
  • Suspension coil spring advisories escalated to a major failure in Apr 2024, suggesting a long-standing issue.
  • Tyre defects (May 2020, 2021, 2022) and wheel bearing advisories (May 2020, 2021) show a pattern of wear and tear.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 4-star safety rating.
  • The vehicle has a valid MOT until 2027, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering is present in the MOT history.
  • The car has consistently passed retests after failures, indicating issues were addressed.
