MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

14 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Citroen C3 (PY53 OPV) between February 2007 and May 2014.

The record contains 8 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 09 May 2014 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (16 issues), Tyres (14 issues), Brakes (10 issues), Windscreen (5 issues), Suspension (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 17 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Parking brake: efficiency below requirements (3.7.B.7)”; “Offside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)”; “Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)”.
