MOT Analysis

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

15 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Citroen C5 (MW08 RLV) between June 2011 and November 2020.

The record contains 10 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 28 November 2020 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (10 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Brakes (8 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Steering (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 14 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: “Engine MIL inoperative or indicates a malfunction (8.2.2.2 (g))”; “Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Lower Suspension component pin or bush excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.
