2010 Citroen C3 1.6L Diesel · AX10 CJJ

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT record at the most recent inspection. The July 2025 test at 153,862 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that previous issues have been resolved. While the record shows two instances of failure in February 2023 and July 2025, the lack of specific defect descriptions in the data suggests these were likely minor items that were rectified immediately to secure a pass. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a vehicle of this age. The car has covered approximately 16,548 miles since the February 2023 test, averaging roughly 8,274 miles per year. This steady usage pattern suggests the vehicle has been driven regularly rather than sitting idle for long periods, which helps prevent seal degradation and fluid stagnation. The current mileage of 153,862 is typical for a 16-year-old Citroen C3 and does not indicate excessive wear relative to its age. Because the MOT history is largely devoid of specific advisories, there are no documented trends regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust corrosion. However, the high mileage necessitates a thorough physical inspection of all wear-and-tear components. A buyer should pay close attention to the condition of the suspension system, specifically the coil springs and shock absorbers, as well as the integrity of the brake lines and calipers. Given the vehicle's age and mileage, checking for structural corrosion on the underside and inspecting the timing belt service history is essential. While the MOT records show no current failures, the recurring failures without recorded defects imply that the vehicle may require periodic attention for consumable items. A physical check of the tyre tread depth and the condition of the wiper blades would be a prudent final step before purchase.
