The real detail is in the individual vehicle report — MOT history, AI Hunches, mileage timeline, and defect patterns for that specific reg.
The 1986 Citroën CX 25 Tri Safari sits outside the standard MOT database we analyse—this particular model and year cohort has no recorded light-vehicle MOT statistics available, so we cannot provide pass rates or defect breakdowns. What we do know is that of the 137 vehicles in this cohort on record, they represent a niche classic variant, likely now either preserved, lightly used, or registered under different classifications that fall outside routine MOT testing.
If you're considering one of these Safaris, MOT history won't tell you much; instead, focus on finding documented service records, checking the bodywork and interior for corrosion (a CX weakness), and having a pre-purchase inspection by someone familiar with 1980s Citroën hydraulic systems and electrics. The rarity of this model means specialist parts and knowledge are scarce, so factor in the cost of restoration or specialist labour before buying.
We have 137 1986 Citroen Cx 25 Tri Safari vehicles on record, but none have light-vehicle MOT history in our data source.
There are a few reasons this can happen:
- Heavy commercial vehicle — trucks, buses and coaches over 3.5 tonnes are tested under the DVSA annual HGV/PSV regime, which uses a separate database not included in our data source
- Imported vehicles — vehicles registered abroad and recently brought to the UK may have no UK MOT history yet
- MOT-exempt — vehicles manufactured before 1986 qualify under the 40-year rolling exemption; some specialist and agricultural vehicles are also exempt
- Never used on public roads — some vehicles are registered but kept off-road and have never required an MOT
