2012 Citroen DS3 1.6L Petrol · CP61 OPY

The Citroen DS3 presents as roadworthy following the most recent test, a pass recorded on 22 September 2025 at 58,079 miles with no defects listed. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with every pass showing a clean sheet and no advisories logged at any stage. The vehicle carries a clean bill of health as far as the official record extends. Mileage remains low for a 2012 registered car, totalling just 58,079 miles over roughly fourteen years, an average near 4,148 miles per year. The record shows gentle accumulation: 53,245 miles at the September 2023 test, 55,477 on the September 2024 failure, and 58,079 by September 2025. No rapid jumps or standing gaps appear between the five entries, though the sparse spread of only three test years limits depth of insight into intermediate wear. The history flags two failures dated 19 September 2024 at 55,477 miles and 22 September 2025 at 58,078 miles, yet both list no defects recorded. This pattern suggests administrative or presentation anomalies in the DVSA data rather than mechanical rejection, not recurring suspension bushes, brake disc, or corrosion issues. A buyer should still confirm the true reason for those failures with the testing station. In person, inspect structural integrity underneath for corrosion given the low use and possible damp standing, check suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing, and verify brake calipers are free with even disc wear. The clean advisories imply prior owners kept basic upkeep current, but the twin zero-defect failures warrant documentary confirmation before purchase.
