2018 Citroen C3 1.6L Diesel · NJ18 FCF

The vehicle presents a strong roadworthiness profile with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 11 December 2024 at 27,550 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets all minimum safety standards. This follows a series of clean passes in early 2024 and 2023, suggesting that the vehicle has remained well maintained without recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,444 miles per year. The data shows significant intervals between tests, such as the 6,080-mile gap between January 2024 and December 2024. While this low usage typically reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, the irregular intervals suggest the car may have sat stationary for extended periods. The single failure recorded on 02 February 2023 at 15,094 miles, followed by a pass the very next day, indicates a minor issue was rectified immediately by the owner. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-mileage, long-term storage. Because the car has not driven frequently, there is a risk of surface corrosion on brake discs or seized calipers from lack of use. Inspect the tyres for sidewall cracking or flat spotting, as rubber degrades over time regardless of tread depth. Additionally, check the suspension bushes and rubber seals for signs of per, which often become brittle on vehicles used this infrequently over several years.
