Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Citroen C3 presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 30 May 2025 at 28,061 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The May 2025 entry shows a failed test on the same date and mileage with no defects logged, immediately followed by a pass on the same day; this points to an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault, and the vehicle carries a clean advisory sheet. Annual mileage sits low for a 2017 registered car. The records show 22,373 miles in September 2022, 23,828 in June 2023, 25,343 in June 2024, and 28,061 by May 2025. That averages roughly 1,700 miles a year across the logged period, well below the national norm. The nine-month gap between the 2022 and 2023 tests suggests lighter use or periods off the road, though no long dormant stretch is evident from the dates themselves. No advisories or defects appear on any test in the chain. The absence of flagged items such as worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, or failing emissions means the paper record gives no signal of developing mechanical risk. A buyer should still confirm in person that the low mileage has not masked standing-water corrosion to brake lines or underbody seams, and check tyre sidewall cracking from age rather than wear. Given the clean history and minimal use, the car looks to have been maintained to a basic pass standard with no skipped tests. Inspect the brake discs for lip and the exhaust for internal rot, as these can pass a test yet degrade quickly on a car driven so little.
