2021 Citroen C3 Shine Puretech S/S 1.2L Petrol · GM21 AHD

The 2021 Citroen C3 Shine PureTech S/S presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 17 June 2025 at 6,830 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, matching the prior 26 June 2024 pass at 4,404 miles. The maintenance trend shows no degradation across the two annual examinations, with zero advisories or failures logged in either entry. Mileage accumulation has been exceptionally low for a five-year-old vehicle. The car covered just 2,426 miles between June 2024 and June 2025, averaging roughly 1,366 miles per year since registration. The record contains only two tests with a clean sweep of results, so no rapid accumulation or concerning gaps emerge from the data. Such low use implies the car sat idle for extended periods, though the MOT history itself gives no evidence of neglect or deferred servicing. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection focused on components prone to deterioration through standing rather than wear. Long dormancy commonly degrades tyre sidewalls, brake caliper seals, and suspension bushes even when mileages stay minimal. The DVSA record flags none of these, but the tester cannot assess hidden corrosion or fluid condition from a pass with no defects. Given the absence of any recorded advisories on brake discs, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity, the documentary evidence supports a sound purchase. Verify the service book against the low mileage and confirm the timing belt interval for the PureTech unit, as infrequent running places different stresses than high-mileage use.
