2019 Citroen C3 1.2L Petrol · NV19 RHO

The vehicle presents a stable but slightly declining maintenance trend regarding consumable components. While the July 2025 test at 33,768 miles resulted in a pass, the tester flagged multiple advisories including near-side front tyre wear and thinning brake pads on both front wheels. This follows a pattern established in the July 2024 test at 24,607 miles, where the record noted pitted or scored brake discs at both front and rear, alongside thinning front pads and offside front tyre wear. The mileage profile indicates very light usage for a 2019 vehicle, averaging approximately 4,800 miles per year. The data shows consistent annual progression, moving from 9,491 miles in May 2022 to the most recent 33,768 miles in July 2025. This low annual mileage suggests the car has not faced heavy long-distance motorway use, though the recurring brake and tyre advisories indicate that the vehicle may spend significant time stationary or is driven in short, urban bursts that accelerate wear on braking components. A prospective buyer should focus on the braking system during a physical inspection. The repeated mentions of thinning pads and scored or pitted discs across the 2024 and 2025 tests suggest that while the vehicle passes, the braking hardware is nearing the end of its service life. Checking the thickness of the remaining pads and the surface condition of the discs is essential. The presence of engine and underbody covers noted in both February and July 2023 might have hindered a thorough inspection of lower components, so a visual check for any signs of fluid leaks or corrosion in those obscured areas is advisable. Tyre condition also requires scrutiny. The transition from offside front wear in 2024 to nearside front wear in 2025 suggests a pattern of uneven consumption or simply the natural progression of tyre life. Ensure all four tyres have adequate tread depth and show even wear across the profile to rule out underlying suspension or alignment issues.
