MOT Analysis

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

15 MOT tests are recorded for this 2010 Citroen Xsara (SM10 BNV) between September 2013 and August 2020.

The record contains 8 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 28 August 2020 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (14 issues), Brakes (10 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (6 issues), Steering (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 27 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 Outer Vehicle structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly reduced”; “Nearside Rear Inner Tyre tread pattern not visible over the whole tread area when minimum depth required is 1.0mm uneve”; “Nearside Rear Brake drum contaminated (1.1.14 (b))”.
