2021 Citroen C5 Aircross Shine Puretech S/S 1.2L Petrol · PE71 EMX

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness with a stable and clean maintenance history. The most recent inspection conducted on 17 September 2025 at 23,904 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a clean pass in September 2024, indicating that the mechanical and structural components have consistently met DVSA standards without recurring failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,781 miles per annum. Between the September 2024 test at 19,689 miles and the 2025 test, the car covered only 4,215 miles. This consistent low-usage pattern suggests the vehicle has been used primarily for short trips, which typically results in less wear on the drivetrain, suspension bushes, and brake components compared to high-mileage counterparts. Since the MOT record shows no historical faults, a physical inspection should focus on potential issues associated with low-mileage vehicles that may sit stationary. Examine the tyres for signs of agerelated cracking or flat spotting if the car has stood for extended periods. You should also check the brake discs for surface corrosion, as infrequent use can lead to seized calipers or glazed pads despite a clean test history. Verify the condition of the rubber components and suspension mounts, as these can degrade over time regardless of the distance driven. While the digital record suggests a well-maintained example, ensuring the service history reflects regular oil changes is vital to protect the PureTech engine from moisture buildup common in low-distance driving cycles.
