2017 Citroen C3 1.2L Petrol · PF67 AET

The Citroen C3 presents a clean roadworthiness record with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 28 July 2025 at 48,304 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Five consecutive annual examinations from July 2021 to July 2025 each resulted in passes without advisories, indicating no worsening mechanical or structural issues tracked by testers. Mileage pattern relative to age shows light use. The car covered 16,258 miles by 31 July 2021, then 21,832 by 31 July 2022 and 27,465 by 10 July 2023, averaging roughly 5,500 miles yearly in that period. From the July 2023 test to 29 July 2024 the odometer climbed to 38,045 miles, a 10,580-mile jump, and by 28 July 2025 it reached 48,304 miles, a further 10,259-mile increase. This shift to nearer 10,000 miles per annum remains below typical averages for a nine-year-old vehicle, and the unbroken annual test sequence reveals no gaps in statutory inspection. The absence of recorded advisories means testers flagged no worn suspension bushes, corroded structures, failing brake discs or exhaust emissions faults across the history. Such a clean sheet suggests previous owners addressed any minor issues pre-test or the car simply wore lightly. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of age-sensitive components that low-mileage, occasionally static vehicles disguise: examine suspension arms for perished rubber, probe brake calipers for binding after prolonged standing, and check underbody and sills for incipient corrosion not yet at test threshold. Tyres may exhibit sidewall cracking from limited use despite adequate tread, and fluid intervals could lag despite low miles. The verified record supports a sound purchase proposition, but physical verification of the above remains prudent before commitment.
