2018 Citroen C3 Aircross 1.2L Petrol · VO18 AEA

The 2018 Citroen C3 Aircross shows a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trajectory, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 16 June 2025 at 42,029 miles which passed with no defects recorded. Earlier examinations tell the same story. The 17 June 2024 test at 37,157 miles, 19 June 2023 at 29,520 miles, 13 June 2022 at 23,107 miles and 15 June 2021 at 19,950 miles all returned passes without advisories. This uninterrupted sequence of clean certificates indicates consistent regulatory compliance and no escalating mechanical concerns. Mileage accumulation reflects light annual use across the vehicle's eight-year life. The odometer advanced from 19,950 miles in mid June 2021 to 42,029 miles by mid June 2025, an average gain near 5,500 miles per year. Annual increments stayed modest: 3,157 miles between 2021 and 2022, 6,413 miles to 2023, 7,637 miles to 2024, then 4,872 miles to 2025. No testing gaps appear; each summer window shows a timely examination. Such low throughput suggests gentle commuting or extended stationary periods rather than skipped statutory checks, though the record itself contains no service invoices. Buyers should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs and brake discs given the car's age and low usage pattern. The MOT history flagged no corrosion or structural integrity issues, yet prolonged standing can precipitate seized calipers or sidewall cracking unseen by annual tests. A technician ought to verify exhaust emissions remain within limits and check chassis members for underbody rust. The absence of past advisories implies prior owners upheld basic statutory checks, but component degradation from time rather than mileage remains plausible.
