CITROEN C32009 · 1.4L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean MOT history. The most recent test on 24 October 2023 at 53,536 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2021, suggesting the car has been maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 2009 model, averaging roughly 3,149 miles per year. Between 4 November 2021 and 24 October 2023, the odometer increased from 39,245 to 53,536 miles. This indicates a steady usage pattern of approximately 7,000 miles per annum over the last few years, though the overall low lifetime mileage suggests the car may have spent significant periods stationary. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Low-use vehicles often suffer from perished rubber seals, seized brake calipers, and flat-spotted tyres. Check for signs of corrosion on the chassis and suspension mounting points, as these are common failure points for this era of Citroen C3 and would not necessarily be flagged in a clean MOT if the rust is superficial. Verify the condition of the engine oil and coolant to ensure regular servicing occurred despite the low mileage. The record shows a failure and immediate pass on 4 November 2021 at 39,244 miles, but the lack of recorded defects suggests a minor administrative or quick-fix issue. Inspect the battery health and fluid levels to confirm the car has not been left dormant for extended periods since the last test in late 2023.
