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

This 2011 Citroen has 18 MOT tests on record with a 72% pass rate and 34,825 miles. However, a clear pattern of recurring drive shaft boot failures and persistent advisories on tyres and brakes warrants careful consideration.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,779 miles/year, with a notable drop to 1,577 miles in the last 12 months (Aug 2025) after 15 years of normal use.

Things to check

  • Recurring drive shaft boot failures (2019, 2021, 2022) indicate a chronic, unresolved issue.
  • Persistent advisories on tyres (Dec 2019, 2020) and brakes (Dec 2020, 2025) suggest ongoing wear.
  • The recent low annual mileage (1,577 miles in 12 months) is unusual for a 15-year-old vehicle.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 5 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until August 2026, offering immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent mileage averaging 9,779 miles/year, indicating normal usage for its age.
  • No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
