2009 Citroen C5 1.7L Petrol · FL59 GPU

The Citroen C5 presents a broadly stable roadworthiness picture, with the most recent test on 15 July 2022 returning a pass at 82,762 miles and no defects recorded. A failed entry logged on the same date at identical mileage carries no listed defects, which points to an administrative or documentation failure rather than a mechanical fault. Across the available history the vehicle shows no recurring advisories or worsening trends, and the maintenance record reads as clean where data exists. The odometer stood at 71,219 miles for the 14 July 2021 test and rose to 82,762 miles by 15 July 2022, an annual gain of roughly 11,500 miles against a lifetime average near 4,868 miles per year. This single-year spike sits above the long-term low-use pattern for a 2009 car, though the total of 82,762 miles remains low for its age. Only three tests appear in the supplied record, so the dataset is sparse; the absence of interim entries limits judgement on standing periods or skipped annual checks. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's seventeen years regardless of the clear MOT sheet. The same-day fail with no defects suggests the seller or previous owner mishandled test submission, so verify the V5C and DVSA status before purchase. Structural corrosion around sills and subframes warrants a ramp check, as low mileage cars left unused often develop hidden rust while showing clean tests.
