2016 Citroen C3 Picasso 1.2L Petrol · FJ66 PZB

The Citroen C3 Picasso presents as roadworthy following its most recent pass on 9 July 2025 at 65,615 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle carries a clean advisory sheet on its last three annual tests, showing no corrosion, suspension wear, brake defects, or exhaust emission failures logged by DVSA testers. This indicates consistent compliance with minimum roadworthiness standards over the observed period. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,562 miles per year against the 65,615 miles recorded. The odometer advanced from 43,763 miles at the July 2023 test to 54,232 miles in July 2024, then to 65,615 miles by July 2025, a steady ~10,400 miles per year across the last two intervals. The sparse record shows only five entries and no consumable wear items flagged at any stage, suggesting either light use or prompt rectification before each test. The July 2025 pass and July 2024 pass with zero defects mean no recurring mechanical faults demand follow-up. The two failed entries from 7 July 2025 and 17 July 2023 list no defects recorded, pointing to administrative or documentation issues at the testing station rather than component failure. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody structural integrity, as MOT absence of advisories does not confirm component life remaining beyond the test day. Given the low yearly coverage and clean sheets, previous owners likely kept the Picasso to basic statutory testing rather than proactive servicing. Verify service history paperwork and check for intermittent electrical faults common on this platform, since the MOT record captures only test-day condition and cannot reveal latent faults.
