2017 Citroen C3 1.2L Petrol · LA17 AAV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a consistent maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 31 March 2026 at 67,966 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating the car currently meets minimum safety standards. While a failure was noted in April 2025, the immediate rectification and subsequent clean pass suggest that the previous owner was proactive in addressing identified faults rather than allowing them to persist. The mileage pattern remains typical for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,550 miles per year. Between March 2023 and March 2024, the car covered 10,638 miles, followed by a slightly lower interval of 8,236 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests. This steady usage suggests regular, moderate operation which typically results in less stress on the drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and brake assemblies compared to high-mileage examples. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific components that caused the failure in the 2025 test at 60,169 miles, as the provided record does not detail the nature of that defect. Given the vehicle's age and relatively low mileage, a check for early corrosion on the structural sills and exhaust system is prudent, even if the MOT history is clean. Additionally, inspect the rubber suspension mounts for cracks and monitor the brake discs, as these components can degrade over time regardless of the distance driven.
