2015 Citroen C3 1.2L Petrol · ST15 FKJ

The vehicle remains roadworthy, as evidenced by its most recent MOT pass in April 2026 at 68,316 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, following three years of defect-free testing between 2023 and 2025. While the latest test identified three minor defects related to tyre condition, the vehicle passed and these are consumable-related issues rather than indicators of mechanical failure or a decline in structural integrity. At 68,316 miles over eleven years, the car has averaged approximately 6,200 miles per annum, which aligns with typical UK usage for a city car. The data shows consistent usage patterns with intervals of roughly 4,000 to 5,000 miles between annual tests from 2022 through to 2026. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which is often beneficial for rubber-based components and brake seals, despite the low mileage for its age. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the tyres, as the April 2026 test flagged cracking and perishing on the offside rear, nearside front, and offside front tyres. This indicates the rubber is degrading due to age rather than tread wear, necessitating replacement to ensure structural safety and grip. Additionally, the 2022 record noted an offside front service brake binding and a defective exhaust mounting. While these did not reappear in subsequent tests, a physical check of brake caliper movement and exhaust system play is advisable to ensure these issues were fully rectified and are not recurring.
