DS DS32016 · 1.6L Diesel

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 3 September 2025 at 41,676 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a pattern of successful tests over the last three years, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is exceptionally low for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,168 miles per year. Between 28 July 2023 at 36,907 miles and 3 September 2025 at 41,676 miles, the car covered only 4,769 miles over a two year period. This low usage suggests the vehicle has spent significant time stationary, which can often lead to different wear patterns than those seen in high mileage examples. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to degradation from disuse. While the MOT record shows no flagged defects, low mileage cars often suffer from perished rubber seals, flat spots on tyres, and seizing brake calipers. Check for any signs of corrosion on the underbody and suspension bushes, as moisture buildup during long periods of standing can accelerate rust even when the odometer remains low. Verify the condition of the battery and all fluid levels. The absence of advisories across the 2023, 2024, and 2025 tests is a positive indicator, but it does not replace a manual check for oil leaks or coolant degradation. Ensure the brakes operate smoothly and the tyres have not aged beyond their safe usable life regardless of the remaining tread depth.
