AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Citroen passed its most recent MOT on 6 May 2025 at 146,103 miles with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend across the last three years is stable with no outstanding advisories or recurring faults. The vehicle shows a clean test history aside from two administrative failures logged one day apart in both 2023 and 2024, where the tester recorded no defects on either occasion. These same-day fail-and-pass pairs suggest paperwork or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical defects. Recorded mileage stands at 146,103 against a 1992 build, averaging roughly 4,300 miles per year. The odometer moved from 135,149 on 24 April 2023 to 141,921 by 23 April 2024, then to 146,103 by May 2025, confirming light annual use with no rapid accumulation. The sparse record shows no gaps beyond normal yearly cycles, and low mileage of this order often means long stationary periods that can age rubber suspension bushes, brake caliper seals, and exhaust hangers even without high wear. A buyer should still inspect the Citroen in person for age-related corrosion around subframes and floor structure, as the MOT history records no corrosion checks or failures but does not confirm underside condition. The hydropneumatic suspension typical of this era needs scrutiny for leaking spheres and degraded pipework. Verify brake disc condition and caliper freedom, since standing vehicles commonly develop binding calipers unseen in a pass with no defects.
