2013 Citroen DS3 1.6L Diesel · BG13 PCZ

The Citroen DS3 presents as roadworthy at its most recent examination. The July 2025 test at 113,725 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend is stable across the available history. Prior annual tests show clean passes in June 2024 at 108,181 miles and June 2023 at 105,038 miles, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. Mileage accumulation is consistent with typical use for a 2013 vehicle. The record shows roughly 3,143 miles added between the June 2023 test and June 2024 test, then 5,544 miles to the July 2025 test. Average annual use sits near 8,748 miles, confirming light-to-moderate operation with no sudden accumulation spikes or unexplained gaps that would suggest prolonged standing or neglected storage. The DVSA data contains no recorded advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, calipers, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion. The June 2023 and June 2024 entries each show a failed test immediately followed by a pass on the same date and mileage, with no defects listed; this pattern implies administrative or presentation anomalies at the testing centre rather than mechanical non-compliance. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of load-bearing structures and consumable items. Thirteen years of age invites unseen rust on sills and subframes, and tyres or wiper blades may have degraded without triggering MOT advisories. The clean record reflects compliant testing, not a guarantee of component condition beneath the surface.
