Citroën C2 MOT reliability

In 2025, 52.9% of Citroën C2 MOT tests were passed first time, against 72.8% for all cars. Cars of the same ages pass 58.8% of the time, so the Citroën C2 does worse than average for its age, by 5.9 points.

DVSA's MOT results name the model, not the version, so these figures cover all Citroën C2s tested, the Loeb among them. For the full breakdown, including defects in detail and results year by year, see the Citroën C2 page.

  • Figures cover Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales). Northern Ireland is not included.
  • Licensed counts are vehicles with a current tax or exemption at the end of each year (or the latest quarter). SORN counts are shown separately, from 2007.
  • This version groups DVLA’s detailed model names “C2 LOEB”. Engine size, gearbox, number of doors and fuel are ignored, so every engine and gearbox counts together.
  • Survival compares the number still registered (licensed or SORN) with the number first registered since 2001. Other versions are those of the same model with the same average year of first registration.
