CITROEN C32011 · 1.4L Petrol

The Citroen C3 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 December 2025 at 63,289 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, though the same date also shows a failed test with no defects listed, an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in December 2024 at 58,187 miles, December 2023 at 52,086 miles, and January 2023 at 46,825 miles all passed cleanly with no advisories raised. The mileage pattern reflects light use for a 15-year-old vehicle. The odometer climbed from 46,825 miles in January 2023 to 63,289 miles by December 2025, an average of roughly 4,200 miles per year. Gaps between tests are narrow and consistent, with no sudden accumulation or long dormant periods suggesting neglect. The clean record across all entries indicates the previous keeper kept basic statutory testing current. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and likely periods of standing. Low annual mileage often masks perished rubber components and surface corrosion on structural underbody points that a pass-with-no-defects MOT will not capture. The absence of advisories across five years means no recurring wear trend exists in the data to warn of impending failure. Given the dual 8 December 2025 entries, confirm with DVSA which certificate is valid before purchase. Otherwise the history shows no mechanical red flags, only the ordinary risks of an ageing low-mileage hatchback.
