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 2001 Citroen Xsara (SG51 BZK) between October 2005 and January 2013.

The record contains 9 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 12 January 2013 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (18 issues), Brakes (16 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues), Suspension (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 24 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: “Nearside Front Track rod end ball joint has excessive play (2.2.B.1f)”; “Nearside Front Anti-roll bar linkage has excessive play in a ball joint (2.4.G.2)”; “Nearside Front coil spring incomplete (2.4.C.1a)”.
