2009 Citroen C3 1.6L Petrol · KV59 FFJ

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a clean history of passes over the last three years. The most recent test in July 2025 at 94,167 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a previous failure on the same day. This pattern suggests that the owner is proactive in rectifying identified issues immediately to ensure compliance, as the car has consistently returned to clean results without lingering advisories in the most recent two inspections. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 94,167 miles represents a low annual usage rate of approximately 5,500 miles. The data shows consistent usage intervals, with roughly 10,000 miles driven between July 2023 and July 2024, and another 5,581 miles between July 2024 and July 2025. Low mileage generally indicates less wear on drivetrain components and engine internals, though periods of standing can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components and perishables that mileage does not reflect. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to age-related failure regardless of the low mileage. While the MOT record shows no current advisories, the age of the Citroen C3 necessitates a close look at structural corrosion on the sills and rear wheel arches. Inspect the suspension bushes for cracking and the coil springs for sagging, as low-use vehicles often suffer from dry rot rather than mechanical wear. Checking the brake discs for pitting or seized calipers is also advisable, as infrequent use can lead to surface rust that affects braking performance.
