2023 Citroen C3 1.2L Petrol · LC23 ERK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a passing MOT test on 13 March 2026. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the recent record identifies a specific advisory regarding the rear brake discs being worn, pitted, scored, and heavily corroded. There are no recorded mechanical failures or structural defects in the history, suggesting the vehicle meets basic safety standards despite noted surface wear. The recorded mileage of 10,021 miles over a three-year period indicates exceptionally low usage, averaging approximately 3,340 miles per year. This low frequency of operation suggests the car has sat stationary for extended periods. The presence of heavy corrosion and pitting on the rear brake discs is a common consequence of such usage patterns, as the lack of heat generation from frequent braking allows moisture to cause rust on the metal surfaces. A buyer should personally inspect the rear braking system to ensure that the pitting has not compromised the structural integrity of the discs beyond surface level. Given the low mileage, it is also necessary to check for flat spots on the tyres and perished rubber components, which often occur when vehicles are driven infrequently. A thorough inspection of the suspension bushes and components is recommended to confirm that the lack of movement has not caused unexpected degradation or seizing of moving parts.
