Which year Citroen Ami is most reliable?

Based on 849 vehicles (2022–2024) and millions of DVLA MOT records.

ℹ️
The Ami is a relatively new model with only 3 model years in our dataset. All years are closely matched — differences are real but smaller than you'd see on a model with 10+ years of data.
📐
Not just "newer is more reliable"
These rankings compare each year at the same mileage point — a 2003 Ami at 80,000 miles is judged against a 2014 Ami at 80,000 miles, not its full lifetime average. Verdicts are also relative to this model's own average, not a universal scale. That's the difference between "old cars wear out" and "this year is genuinely more or less reliable."

How is this measured?

📋

What "pass rate" means

The percentage of all MOT tests that resulted in a pass — counted across a car's whole life, not just its first test. Higher means fewer failures over time.

📐

Mileage groups built from real data

We split this model's real-world mileage history into 5 equal groups — so each slice contains the same number of cars, not an arbitrary round number like "0–30,000 miles."

Does age still matter?

Yes. A low-mileage 20-year-old car has still had 20 years of weather, perishing rubber, and ageing electrics. Comparing at the same mileage narrows the gap between old and new — but doesn't erase it entirely.

🏆

Why this beats surveys

Our figures come from the DVLA's national MOT database — over 50 million real test results from accredited garages, with no opinions involved. Most reliability guides are based on owner surveys with a few hundred responses per model.
