2011 Citroen C3 VT 1.1L Petrol · EFZ 8860

The vehicle’s most recent MOT, dated 15 October 2023 at 82 613 miles, recorded a pass with no defects, indicating the car remains roadworthy at the time of that test. The maintenance trend is stable and improving; the only recorded failure occurred on 11 January 2020 at 54 979 miles, also listed as “no defects,” suggesting a minor administrative or advisory issue that was promptly resolved. Since then the car has passed every subsequent test without reported faults, confirming a consistent pattern of upkeep. Mileage accumulation is notably low for a 15‑year‑old model, averaging roughly 5 500 miles per year. The log shows a steady rise from 48 095 miles in January 2019 to the current figure, with increments of 13 798 miles between January 2020 and December 2021, followed by 7 229 miles to November 2022 and 6 450 miles to October 2023. This gradual increase points to light, infrequent use rather than high‑intensity driving. However, the gap between the last MOT (October 2023) and the present date (July 2026) exceeds two years, meaning the vehicle has been unexamined by an official tester for almost three years, a period that warrants immediate retesting. A prospective buyer should inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration, check the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or binding, and examine tyre tread depth across all four wheels. Visual assessment of the underbody and wheel arches for rust or corrosion is essential, as low mileage does not guarantee corrosion‑free structures. Finally, verify that the vehicle carries a current MOT certificate and review any service records to confirm that the recent pass was not due to deferred work.
