The real detail is in the individual vehicle report — MOT history, AI Hunches, mileage timeline, and defect patterns for that specific reg.

The 2023 Citroën C5 Aircross C-Series is a genuinely reliable proposition, with a 94.4% first-time pass rate that sits well above the UK average of 80%—this is a car that typically sails through its MOT. Dangerous defects are virtually non-existent at just 0.4%, so safety shouldn't be a concern for buyers.
