2021 Citroen C5 Aircross Shine + Ptech SS A 1.2L Petrol · LA21 AHF

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-07-14 at 55,669 miles confirmed it met roadworthiness standards with no defects recorded. The prior test in 2024-04-30 at 43,350 miles also passed without issues, indicating a stable maintenance trend over the past 15 months. No recurring faults or structural concerns were flagged in either assessment, suggesting the owner maintained the vehicle to a satisfactory standard. The absence of advisories or critical failures implies the car has not experienced significant mechanical degradation. The mileage progression shows 12,319 miles added between the 2024 and 2025 tests, slightly above the average annual rate of 11,134 miles but not excessively so. A 15-month gap between MOTs may reflect infrequent testing, though the lack of defects in both assessments mitigates immediate concerns. The vehicle’s age and mileage align with typical usage patterns, with no evidence of rapid wear on consumables or major components. The sparse MOT history, however, limits insight into potential intermittent issues that might not surface during periodic inspections. A buyer should conduct a detailed inspection of suspension components, including control arms, bushings, and coil springs, as these often degrade over time without immediate MOT consequences. Brake discs and calipers should also be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, particularly if the car has been driven in harsh conditions. The exhaust system’s integrity and body corrosion, especially around wheel arches and underbody panels, warrant scrutiny. While the MOT records show no red flags, these areas remain critical for long-term reliability and safety.
