2008 Citroen C-Crosser 2.2L Diesel · LR08 ACX

This Citroen C-Crosser presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean bill of health in its most recent test on 18 June 2025. The vehicle passed without a single defect or advisory recorded at 133,665 miles. This follows a consistent pattern of passing subsequent to initial failures in both 2024 and 2025, though the lack of recorded defects during those failures suggests the issues were minor or administrative in nature. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the age of the vehicle. It covered 14,321 miles between the April 2023 test at 102,848 miles and the May 2024 test at 119,344 miles. Use then tapered slightly, with 14,321 additional miles added by June 2025. This average of roughly 7,400 miles per year indicates regular use rather than long periods of standing, which generally helps maintain engine seals and braking systems. The absence of advisories across the last three years is unusual for an 18 year old vehicle. While the record is clean, a buyer must manually verify the condition of the chassis and suspension. Older Citroens of this era are prone to corrosion on the subframes and wear in the suspension bushes. The lack of flagged items in the MOT history does not guarantee the absence of structural rust or degrading rubber components. Priority should be given to inspecting the brake discs for pitting and checking the condition of the tyres. Since the DVSA record shows no consumables were flagged for replacement, it is possible that basic maintenance has been deferred. A physical check of the oil leaks and coolant condition is recommended to ensure the mechanical health matches the clean paperwork.
