2014 Citroen DS3 1.6L Diesel · FP14 OEL

The Citroen DS3 presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 5 November 2025 at 109,441 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The November 2025 pass came one day after a failed attempt at 109,439 miles where the tester logged no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in November 2024 at 102,771 miles and November 2023 at 96,377 miles also passed, though the 2023 pass followed a same-day fail that similarly recorded no defects. Annual mileage has averaged close to 9,120 miles, consistent with typical use for a twelve-year-old vehicle. The gap between the 2023 test at 96,377 miles and the 2024 test at 102,771 miles shows about 6,394 miles covered, then 6,670 miles to the 2025 test, confirming steady rather than sporadic use. The record shows no advisories across any entry, so the data gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs, though the absence of notes limits insight into wear trends. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody corrosion given the car's age and the sparse MOT commentary. The repeated no-defect fails suggest clerical anomalies at the testing station rather than owner neglect, but the lack of advisories means latent wear on tyres, wiper blades, and exhaust emissions could exist unnoticed. Verify the V5C and confirm the 2025 fail was purely administrative before purchase.
