2022 Citroen C5 Aircross Shine Puretech S/S 1.2L Petrol · NG71 YMS

The Citroen C5 Aircross presents a stable and reassuring maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test, conducted on 24 October 2025 at 28,218 miles, concluded with a clean pass and zero defects recorded. This follows a similarly clean pass on 29 January 2025 at 23,058 miles. The absence of any advisories or failures across both recorded tests indicates the vehicle has been kept in sound mechanical and structural order, with no emerging or recurring faults flagged by the testing station. The mileage accumulation is consistent and unremarkable for a vehicle of this age. Between the January 2025 test at 23,058 miles and the October 2025 test at 28,218 miles, the vehicle covered approximately 5,160 miles over a nine-month period. This aligns with the overall annualised average of roughly 7,054 miles per year, suggesting regular and steady use rather than prolonged standing or unusually high-intensity driving. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden jumps in the odometer record that would raise concerns about mileage tampering or extended periods of neglect. Despite the clean MOT record, a prospective buyer should still carry out a thorough in-person inspection focused on areas not always fully exercised under test conditions. Check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and dampers for any signs of premature wear or weeping, as these components can deteriorate between tests without triggering an immediate failure. Inspect the brake discs, pads, and calipers for uneven wear or binding, and examine the underside and wheel arches for any early signs of corrosion, particularly around suspension mounting points and subframes. Verify the condition of all four tyres, including the spare if fitted, and ensure the exhaust system shows no evidence of leaks or excessive corrosion. A short test drive will confirm the smooth operation of the PureTech engine and automatic gearbox under load.
