2021 Citroen C3 Shine + Puretech S/S 1.2L Petrol · HV71 UDL

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness with a clean MOT history across its three recent inspections. The most recent test conducted on 2 January 2026 at 27,379 miles passed with no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have consistently ensured the vehicle meets DVSA safety standards without any recurring mechanical or structural failures flagged by the tester. The mileage pattern is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,476 miles per annum. Between the September 2024 test at 20,997 miles and the April 2025 test at 23,888 miles, the car covered 2,891 miles, followed by another 3,491 miles leading to the January 2026 inspection. This low usage suggests light urban driving, which typically results in less wear on heavy- components like brake discs and suspension bushings compared to high-mileage examples. Since the MOT record shows no historical faults, an in-person inspection should focus on components affected by low-mileage use. A buyer should check for flat spots on the tyres or brake corrosion from periods of standing, as these can occur when vehicles are not driven frequently. While the mechanical history is pristine, the buyer must verify the service history to ensure 12,000-mile intervals were followed and check the condition of the timing belt on the PureTech engine, which is critical regardless of low mileage.
