2018 Citroen C3 1.2L Petrol · LC68 RVF

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy state, having achieved a clean pass in April 2026 at 45,246 miles. The maintenance trend is currently stable following a minor failure in late December 2024. While the car previously failed due to a dipped beam headlamp and perished rear tyres, these issues were rectified, as evidenced by the subsequent pass with no further mechanical or structural defects recorded in the most recent inspection. At eight years old, the recorded 45,246 miles are significantly below the national average, averaging approximately 5,656 miles per year. This low usage pattern is consistent across the records, showing 7,611 miles driven between December 2022 and December 2024. However, the low mileage correlates with age-related wear on rubber components. The recurring advisories regarding tyre degradation across three different years suggest the vehicle may sit stationary for long periods, causing the rubber to dry out and perish rather than wearing out from tread use. A buyer should specifically inspect the condition of all tyres, as the history shows a pattern of cracking and perishing from 2023 and 2024 that suggests the rubber is reaching the end of its functional life regardless of tread depth. The front braking system also requires attention; the tester flagged thin pads and worn discs in 2022, and while no faults were noted in later tests, the buyer should verify if these components were replaced since then. Given the low annual mileage, one should also check for corrosion on the brake discs and exhaust system, which are common in vehicles that are not driven frequently.
