2021 Citroen C3 Shine + Puretech S/S 1.2L Petrol · HJ71 ABV

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness as evidenced by a clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on May 28, 2025 at 19,829 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the vehicle has consistently met all DVSA safety and environmental standards without any mechanical failure or structural degradation over the last two inspection cycles. The mileage pattern is significantly low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. Between the June 2024 test at 11,642 miles and the May 2025 test, the car covered only 8,187 miles. This low usage suggests light annual travel, which typically reduces wear on drivetrain components, suspension bushes, and brakes. However, long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to tyre deformation or brake corrosion if the vehicle is not driven regularly. Since the MOT record shows no recurring faults, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by low-mileage use. A buyer should check for flat spotting on the tyres and ensure the rubber has not perished despite the low tread depth. It is also prudent to inspect the brake discs for surface rust or pitting, which can occur when cars sit for extended periods. Given the clean history, the mechanical integrity appears well-preserved, provided the service history has followed the annual intervals regardless of the low mileage.
