Our Verdict
This is a sensible option for a small pe
When inspecting this specific 1.2L petrol C3, your primary focus should be on the tyres. The most recent MOT advisory (2025) specifically mentions a nearside front tyre being worn on the edge and close to the legal limit. You should check the remaining three tyres to see if they are approaching similar limits, as the 2022 MOT also flagged two front tyres for similar wear issues.
Ask the seller for evidence of recent tyre replacements to see if the 2025 advisory has been addressed. Beyond tyres, check the condition of the braking components, as tyre wear on the edges can sometimes indicate alignment issues. Ensure the 1199cc engine runs smoothly without unusual vibrations, though the MOT history does not provide specific data on engine performance.
The 1.2L petrol engine is generally positioned in a lower insurance group and tax band, making it economical for urban driving. Fuel economy for this model variant is typically competitive for a small hatchback, though actual figures will depend on driving style and load.
Maintenance costs for a Citroen C3 are generally moderate, with tyres being a recurring item in this vehicle's history. You should budget for a set of tyres shortly after purchase if the 2025 advisory remains unaddressed. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, fall in the mid-range for this vehicle class.
Focus heavily on the wheel and tyre condition. The MOT history shows a recurring theme of tyre wear, with failures or advisories in 2022 (two front tyres) and 2025 (nearside front tyre). Inspect the tread depth and look for uneven wear patterns which could suggest the need for a wheel alignment.
Additionally, check for any signs of puncture repairs, as the 2023 MOT recorded nails in both the nearside rear and offside front tyres. While these were passed, it is worth ensuring the tyres are in good structural condition. Finally, inspect the exterior red paintwork for any significant chips or fading common to this age and model.
This 2019 Citroen C3, finished in red, has covered 43,506 miles since its first registration in March 2019. The MOT history across four tests shows a pattern of tyre-related advisories rather than significant mechanical defects. While the vehicle has passed every test, the most recent inspection in September 2025 noted a nearside front tyre worn close to the legal limit.
No aggregate reliability data is available for this specific Citroen C3 model to provide a comparative benchmark.
