2021 Citroen C3 Sense Puretech S/S 1.2L Petrol · GF71 SYG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following its most recent test on October 8, 2025. While the car passed the inspection, the record shows an immediate failure on the same day due to a defect on the nearside rear tyre where a cut reached the ply cords. The subsequent pass indicates that the faulty tyre was replaced, though minor sidewall damage on the offside rear and nearside front remained. This suggests the owner is reactive to safety-critical failures once they are identified. The mileage profile is exceptionally low, with only 7,364 miles recorded over five years. This averages to approximately 1,473 miles per annum, showing a significant gap between the October 2024 test at 1,975 miles and the October 2025 test where the vehicle covered over 5,000 miles. Such low annual usage often implies the car sits for long periods or performs only very short trips, which can occasionally lead to flat-spotting tyres or corrosion on brake discs due to lack of regular mechanical exercise. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of all four tyres to check for further sidewall damage or uneven wear, as the 2025 record indicates multiple points of impact damage. Given the low mileage, verify the brake discs for heavy surface rust or pitting that occurs when vehicles remain stationary. Additionally, inspect the rubber components and suspension bushes for cracking or perish, as low-mileage vehicles suffer more from age-related degradation than mechanical wear.
