2020 Citroen C5 1.5L Diesel · LG20 UOM

The vehicle currently holds a technically roadworthy status based on the most recent inspection, though the history indicates a period of reactive maintenance. The test on 14 March 2023 at 31,726 miles showed a pass following a failure just the previous day. While the immediate issues regarding the registration plate lamp and the missing brake hydraulic reservoir cap were rectified, the proximity of the failure to the successful pass suggests that the previous owner only addressed faults when forced by the tester rather than through routine preventative checks. At six years old, the recorded mileage of 31,726 miles is significantly below the national average, averaging approximately 5,288 miles per year. This low usage pattern suggests short trips or long periods of inactivity, which can often be detrimental to modern electronics and suspension components. The lack of data between March 2023 and the current date of June2026 means the vehicle has not been tested for over three years, leaving the current state of rubber components and fluid integrity entirely unverified. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system given the previous failure in March 2023. The tester flagged a missing brake hydraulic reservoir cap and a missing anti-slip provision, both of which are critical safety risks related to fluid loss and hydraulic failure. Check for signs of fluid leaks around the reservoir and inspect the condition of the brake lines. The offside rear tyre was noted as worn on the edge, indicating a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that should be re-evaluated to prevent premature wear on new tyres.
