2015 Citroen C3 1.6L Diesel · HN65 XKX

The 2025‑11‑04 MOT at 33,272 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming current roadworthiness and indicating a stable maintenance trend after earlier failures. Mileage has risen from 15,153 miles in 2018 to 33,272 miles in 2025, an average increase of roughly 1,600 miles per year, with no abrupt jumps; the progression from 2020 (21,329) to 2025 (33,272) shows steady use rather than long periods of standing. Recurring issues include an inoperative reversing lamp noted in 2023, 2024 and 2025, suggesting wiring or lamp assembly faults; front tyres repeatedly showed inner‑edge wear and cuts, pointing to possible alignment or suspension problems; rear brake pads were recorded as thin in 2024, and direction indicators displayed discolouration in 2023, indicating possible electrical or mounting wear. Earlier failures in 2020 listed an insecure exhaust and advised folding rear seats, hinting at chassis flex, while a 2019 tyre pressure monitoring fault and a 2019 inner tyre tread deficiency further flagged potential neglect of critical components. A buyer should therefore inspect the reversing lamp circuit, verify tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity, examine brake pad thickness and disc condition, check suspension bushes, coil springs and brake caliper operation for binding, and look for rust or insecure mounting on the chassis and exhaust system.
