MOT Analysis

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

28 MOT tests are recorded for this 1998 Citroen Saxo (R822 DOU) between April 2006 and March 2026.

The record contains 21 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 17 March 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (15 issues), Lighting (14 issues), Tyres (12 issues), Suspension (9 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (7 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 34 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 Rear Position lamp adversely affected by the operation of another lamp side light goes out with brake light (4.2”; “Offside Rear Position lamp light intensity significantly reduced (4.2.3 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Stop lamp(s) not working (4.3.1 (a) (ii))”.
