2010 Citroen C3 1.6L Diesel · LG10 LSD

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent test on 10 October 2025 at 131,546 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, immediately following a failure just three days prior at 131,543 miles. This rapid sequence suggests a minor administrative or trivial mechanical issue that was rectified instantly before the retest, indicating a proactive approach to maintaining compliance. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,200 miles per year. There is a notable increase of 36,510 miles between the October 2024 test (95,036 miles) and the October 2025 test (131,546 miles), representing a significant spike in usage compared to the previous annual average of roughly 7,000 miles. Despite this acceleration, the vehicle has passed all inspections without advisories, though the high annual mileage now typically accelerates wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. Given the clean history regarding structural failures or mechanical advisories, a physical inspection should focus on common wear points for this age and mileage. A buyer should examine the condition of the suspension bushes and bushings for cracking, as the recent high mileage puts increased strain on these rubber components. Additionally, checking the brake discs and pads for uneven wear or thinning is advisable, as the record does not account for binding calipers or corrosion levels between tests.
