MOT Analysis

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

21 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Citroen C3 (LX55 OPP) between August 2008 and May 2022.

The record contains 13 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 23 May 2022 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: Tyres (15 issues), Brakes (6 issues), Suspension (6 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Windscreen (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 15 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 Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect (4.1.2 (c))”; “Nearside Front Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect (4.1.2 (c))”; “Exhaust emissions exceed level of metered smoke for a turbo charged engine (8.2.2.2 (b))”.
