AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2017 DS3 presents a generally stable maintenance profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent inspection in August 2025 at 61,281 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the minimum safety standards. However, a failure recorded just in July 2025 at 61,030 miles suggests a specific issue was identified and rectified shortly before the final pass. Since that failure, the vehicle has maintained a clean record without further advisories or failures in subsequent tests. The mileage progression is remarkably consistent for the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. This is below the UK national average, which typically suggests lower wear on consumable components such as brake discs, tyres, and suspension own. The steady climb from 45,133 miles in 2022 to over 61,000 miles in 2025 shows regular usage patterns rather than long periods of stagnation which can often lead to seized components or fluid degradation. While the current record shows no active defects, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the underbody for structural corrosion. Given the age of the car, even with lower mileage, rubber components like bushes and engine mounts should be checked for cracking or perish. The single failure in mid-2025 indicates that the vehicle is capable of failing when faults arise, but the immediate pass confirms the owner is responding to necessary maintenance requirements.
