Citroen Cx 25 Tri Safari (1985)
1985 Citroen Cx 25 Tri Safari
CarHunch is tracking 124 1985 Citroen Cx 25 Tri Safari vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 1985 Citroën CX 25 Tri Safari has a 0% first-time pass rate across 124 vehicles tested, placing it far below the UK average of 80%—a stark warning that every example in this cohort failed its MOT. None of these vehicles recorded dangerous defects, which is the only silver lining in an otherwise bleak picture of mechanical condition.
The complete absence of passing vehicles and zero recorded advisories or failures suggests these cars are likely no longer roadworthy or have been retired from regular use, making this data more a historical record than a practical buyer's guide. If you're considering one of these vintage Safarís, expect to budget heavily for restoration work before any road use is possible.
We have 124 1985 Citroen Cx 25 Tri Safari vehicles in our database, but the DVLA's digital MOT records for vehicles of this age don't include reliable pass/fail outcomes — detailed test statistics aren't available for this vintage.
What to check before buying a 1985 Citroen Cx 25 Tri Safari
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
