2023 Citroen C3 C-Series Edition P-Tech S/S 1.2L Petrol · CK23 VVU

This Citroën C3 has demonstrated a stable roadworthiness trend over its recorded MOT history, with the most recent test on 12 March 2026 at 21,888 miles resulting in a clean pass—no defects or advisories were recorded. The vehicle’s compliance with current MOT standards suggests no immediate failures in critical systems such as brakes, suspension, steering, or emissions. However, the lack of prior test data means there is no historical context to assess whether minor wear items (e.g., brake pads, tyres, or suspension bushes) have been consistently maintained or neglected. The absence of advisories in the latest test implies the tester did not identify any pending issues requiring attention before the next inspection. The recorded mileage of 21,888 miles over approximately three years equates to an average of 7,296 miles per annum , which aligns with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this age. There are no gaps in the MOT record to suggest prolonged periods of disuse or rapid mileage accumulation, though the sparse data—only a single test—prevents a deeper analysis of wear trends. Without earlier tests, it is impossible to determine whether the vehicle has undergone regular servicing or if critical components like timing belts, differential fluid, or suspension linkages have been serviced according to manufacturer intervals. Given the limited MOT history, a prospective buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of brake components , particularly the rear calipers and discs, as binding brakes were not flagged in the latest test but could develop over time. The suspension should be examined for worn or leaking bushes, as well as coil spring integrity, especially if the vehicle has experienced uneven loading or off-road use. Tyre condition remains a concern—while not recorded in the MOT, failing twice on tread depth in prior tests (if they had occurred) would indicate basic upkeep was overlooked. Finally, check for corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, as early rust can compromise structural integrity without immediate MOT failure. The lack of advisories does not guarantee these areas are pristine, so visual and functional checks are essential.
