CITROEN DS32014 · 1.2L Petrol

The 2014 Citroen DS3 presents a currently roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 4 October 2024 at 72,360 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, with every annual test from September 2022 onward showing clean results aside from administrative fail/pass pairs on the same dates in 2022 and 2024 where the tester logged no defects. This pattern suggests the failures were procedural rather than mechanical, and the vehicle has not accumulated any advisories or outstanding wear items in the record. Mileage progression sits at a typical level for a twelve-year-old car. The odometer read 62,562 miles on 13 September 2022, rose to 66,794 miles by 2 September 2023, and reached 72,360 miles at the October 2024 test. That equates to roughly 5,200 to 6,000 miles per year, confirming light-to-moderate use with no rapid accumulation or suspicious gaps. The sparse record shows no flagged consumable replacements, structural corrosion, or brake and suspension concerns across the observed period. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of core mechanical components despite the clean MOT trail. The DVSA data contains no advisories on coil springs, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions, but a car of this age and standing history can conceal surface corrosion on subframes or perished rubber mounts not yet at test-threshold condition. Verify the front and rear brake calipers for free operation and check tyre sidewalls for age cracking given the low annual mileage. The same-day fail and pass entries in September 2022 and October 2024 imply the previous owner addressed minor paperwork or presentation issues promptly rather than neglecting faults. Overall, the documentary evidence supports a low-risk purchase subject to standard pre-sale checks on wear items the MOT did not capture.
