MOT Analysis

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

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Citroen C3 (CV05 UPB) between March 2008 and December 2023.

The record contains 17 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 16 December 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (19 issues), Lighting (15 issues), Suspension (15 issues), Tyres (7 issues), Windscreen (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 45 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 Wheel bearing so rough it is likely to overheat or break up (5.1.3 (b) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Direction indicator not working (4.4.1 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Rear Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak (5.3.2 (b))”.
