2007 Citroen Xsara 1.6L Diesel · NG07 WHC

The Citroen Xsara presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 9 July 2024 at 102,324 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable and shows no worsening mechanical faults across the supplied history. A prior failure on 3 July 2024 at 102,305 miles carries no listed defects, suggesting an administrative or unrecorded minor rejection rather than a hard mechanical fault, and the vehicle cleared six days later. Recorded mileage sits at 102,324 against a 2007 build, an average of roughly 5,385 miles per year. The DVSA data shows light annual use: 98,443 miles on 28 April 2022, rising to 100,738 by 24 April 2023 and 102,324 by July 2024. Gaps exist between April 2022 and the July 2024 retests, with the April 2022 failure at 98,438 miles also showing no defects. The clean slate of advisories across every test implies either careful upkeep or, given the low mileage, periods of storage that suppress wear on consumables and drivetrain parts. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs, as the MOT record logs no advisories that would confirm their condition on a nineteen-year-old hatchback. Structural integrity and underbody corrosion warrant close checking given the age and likely standing periods. The twin non-defect failures in April 2022 and July 2024 merit a question to the seller on the exact rejection reason, since DVSA fields show none. Low mileage and zero advisories suggest the previous owners avoided heavy use but did not necessarily address age-related perishing. Verify the actual April 2022 and July 2024 failure causes via the full DVSA certificate before purchase, and budget for tyres, wiper blades, and fluid changes as baseline consumable renewal.
