MOT Analysis

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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Citroen C5 (BF54 VLM) between August 2007 and January 2012.

The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 12 January 2012 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (6 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Windscreen (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 4 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: “Offside Front Fluid suspension pipe leaking (2.4.D.2)”; “Offside Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (8.2.2)”; “Nearside Windscreen washer provides insufficient washer liquid (8.2.3)”.
