CITROEN DS32014 · 1.6L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test in April 2025 with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable, although the history shows a recurring pattern of failing just days before a pass in both 2024 and 2025. This suggests that the vehicle frequently suffers from minor issues that are rectified immediately prior to the inspection, rather than suffering from long-term mechanical neglect. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. There is a notable gap of over 15,000 miles covered between April 2023 and March 2024, followed by roughly 14,000 miles in the year leading up to the April 2025 test. This steady accumulation indicates the car is used regularly, which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals and components, though it also places standard wear on high-mileage items. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and braking system, as these are the common areas of concern on a DS3 with this mileage. While the latest test showed no active defects, the previous failures indicate that the vehicle requires frequent attention to components that wear out over time. Attention should also be paid to structural corrosion on the undercarriage and the condition of the tyres, given the high-mileage status and the consistent use of the vehicle.
