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 30 MOT tests on record with a 63% pass rate and 92 miles. The mileage trajectory is highly suspicious, with a significant decrease in 2020 and a 3-year MOT gap, indicating potential fraud.
The vehicle shows only 92 miles recorded since 2009, with a critical decrease of 153,147 miles between April 2019 (485,406 mi) and April 2020 (332,259 mi), and a 3-year MOT gap (Nov 2021–Jul 2025).
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Apr 2019 (485,406 mi) and Apr 2020 (332,259 mi) — possible odometer tamper
- AUTO-FLAGGED: 3 test failures within 12 months (Apr 2015 – Oct 2015)
- Mileage decreased by 153,147 miles between Apr 2019 (485,406 mi) and Apr 2020 (332,259 mi).
- Only 92 miles recorded since 2009 first registration, indicating severe odometer fraud.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until August 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT (Aug 2025).
- Consistent annual mileage for the first 10 years (2019–2029), despite later anomalies.
- No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
