AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Citroen has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 23,697 miles. While recent failures were promptly rectified, the recurring tyre advisories and unexplained 2020 MOT absence warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,420 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent low of 3,956 miles in 2025.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories (Jan 2021, Jan 2024) indicate a history of wear and tear on critical safety components.
- A 2020 MOT gap is noted, suggesting the vehicle may have been off-road or not serviced during that period.
- Two DANGEROUS tyre failures (Jan 2021) and one insecure indirect vision device (Jan 2024) highlight past maintenance concerns.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 4-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until January 2027 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent low annual mileage (5,420 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential for longer component life.
