2017 Citroen C3 1.2L Petrol · KT17 XGV

The overall roadworthiness of this 2017 CITROEN C3 is non-roadworthy in the sense that the vehicle has failed multiple times and shows signs of structural and mechanical deterioration, despite the most recent test passing. The MOT history reveals a clear deterioration trend, with the most recent test on 2025-10-31 failing to meet the standard, whereas the previous two tests in 2024 and 2023 were successful. This progression indicates that the vehicle has not been maintained in a way that prevents the accumulation of wear and failure modes. The mileage pattern suggests that the vehicle has accumulated approximately 6,022 miles annually over its 9-year lifespan, which is consistent with typical usage but raises concerns about the quality of upkeep. The gap between the most recent test (54,198 miles) and the first failure (50,543 miles) is significant, suggesting that the vehicle may have undergone a period of reduced use or neglect before the first fault occurred, or that the wear on critical components like the suspension bushings or brake discs has been exacerbated by the gap in history. Given the recurring faults, particularly the incorrect colour of nearside rear indicators and non-working stop lamps, the vehicle requires immediate professional assessment for structural integrity and brake systems. A buyer should not proceed with purchase without visiting the dealer to inspect the engine bay, suspension components, and brake discs for corrosion, wear, or damage, as the history of these specific failures indicates a high probability of future mechanical issues.
