2016 Citroen C3 1.2L Petrol · WO65 AEY

The 2016 Citroen C3 exhibits a stable roadworthiness trend, with no defects recorded in its last five consecutive MOT tests, including the most recent 2026-01-29 assessment at 58,952 miles. All prior tests from 2021 to 2025 also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance and adherence to safety standards. No advisories or failures suggest the vehicle has been well cared for, though the absence of recorded defects does not preclude hidden wear in components like suspension bushes or brake discs. The vehicle’s mileage of 58,952 miles at age 10 years equates to roughly 5,895 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for its age. This low usage could imply infrequent driving or prolonged periods of inactivity, which may affect fluid longevity and electrical systems. Notable gaps between MOT tests—such as the 14-month interval between 2023-01-09 (41,947 miles) and 2024-01-18 (49,292 miles)—raise questions about maintenance consistency, though no failures occurred during these periods. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension for worn bushes or coil springs, as low mileage can mask gradual degradation. Brake components, including discs and calipers, should be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, as absence of recorded issues does not guarantee optimal condition. Additionally, the body’s structural integrity and underbody corrosion warrant scrutiny, as prolonged inactivity may accelerate rust in hidden areas. No emissions or exhaust-related advisories were noted, but a live emissions test is advisable to confirm compliance.
