2015 DS DS3 1.2L Petrol · CA65 JVL

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 10 December 2024 resulted in a pass at 85,037 miles with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a pattern of passing tests without any recorded advisories, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that consistently meets minimum legal standards. The mileage is typical for an eleven year old vehicle, averaging roughly 7,731 miles per year. There was a notable increase in usage between 16 December 2023 and 10 December 2024, where the odometer rose from 70,008 to 85,037 miles. This period of higher activity accounts for nearly 15,000 miles in a single year, which is double the historical average. The MOT record is unusually clean, showing no listed defects or advisories across multiple years. While this suggests a well-maintained car, the absence of any flagged wear on consumables like brake discs, tyres, or suspension bushes is rare for a vehicle of this age. The failures on 12 December 2022 and 7 December 2024 were resolved almost immediately, though the records do not specify the faults that caused those initial failures. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on common DS3 weak points that MOT testers often overlook if they are not severe. Check for any signs of corrosion on the chassis and inspect the condition of the suspension mounts. Given the lack of recorded advisories, verify the actual tread depth of the tyres and the thickness of the brake pads to ensure they have not been neglected despite the clean paperwork.
