2016 DS DS3 Dstyle NAV Bluehdi S/S 1.6L Gas bi fuel · AGZ 4017

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with a notable absence of advisories across its testing history. This trend is supported by the latest pass on 11 June 2026, although the record does show a failure on 11 February 2025 which was rectified by 7 March 2025, despite no specific defects being listed for that instance. The vehicle has covered 124,751 miles over ten years, averaging roughly 12,475 miles annually. This high usage rate indicates significant wear on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems compared to a lower-mileage equivalent. There is a visible gap in the testing sequence between January 2020 and October 2022, suggesting an irregular usage pattern or a period where the vehicle was not subjected to annual inspection. Inspection should focus on high-wear components that may be nearing the end of their operational life despite the clean MOT history. During a test drive, listen for knocks or rattles over bumps, which would suggest worn suspension bushes or coil spring fatigue. Monitor the steering for any pull or vibration at speed, and check for any hesitation or unevenness in the pedal feel during braking. Further attention should be paid to the BlueHDI engine for any signs of oil misting or leaks, as these are common on high-mileage examples. Test the clutch for any signs of slipping under load and ensure the gear transitions are smooth. A physical check of the brake discs for excessive lip wear or scoring is advised given the total mileage accumulated.
