2013 Citroen DS3 1.2L Petrol · AF63 FXZ

The 2013 Citroen DS3 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 1 December 2025 at 65,752 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Every annual examination from 31 December 2021 through to the latest pass returned a clean result. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the five-year DVSA history, indicating consistent compliance with statutory roadworthiness standards. The odometer shows low annual use for a thirteen-year-old vehicle. The car covered 53,462 miles at the 2021 test, rising to 57,206 by December 2022, 59,434 in December 2023, 62,396 in December 2024, and 65,752 by December 2025. That equates to roughly 3,000 miles per year across the recorded span, well below the national average. The sparse, clean record gives no evidence of rapid accumulation or standing gaps, though low mileage sustained over long idle periods can still mask perished rubber components not visible in a pass result. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers given the vehicle's age. The MOT history flags no corrosion or structural concerns, yet test passes without advisories do not certify component life. Examine brake discs for lip wear and check exhaust emissions under cold start, as thirteen years of age invites degradation outside the test bay. Previous keepers clearly observed annual test discipline with no lapses or failures. The absence of tyre, wiper, or consumable advisories suggests reasonable basic upkeep rather than deferred maintenance. Verify service records alongside this clean MOT trail before purchase.
