# Mercedes-Benz Citan MOT reliability: pass rate and common failures | RegFlags

The Mercedes-Benz Citan passed its MOT first time 44% of the time, but from only 9 MOT tests, so treat it as a rough guide. See pass rates by year, common failures and typical mileage.

- First-time MOT pass rate: 44%
- MOT tests analysed: 9 (DVSA anonymised MOT data, 2025)
- Most common failure area: Lights & electrics
- Licensed in Great Britain: 20,682 (2026 Q2)

These figures come from only 9 MOT tests. With so few cars, a single pass or fail changes the percentages a lot, so treat them as a rough guide rather than a true average.
