2014 Citroen C3 1.4L Petrol · WL63 BFV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive approach to repairs rather than proactive care. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 90,184 miles was a pass, it followed a failure just two days prior due to a suspension arm ball joint and multiple tyre defects. The trend shows a recurring pattern of allowing components to reach the point of legal failure, suggesting that the owner only addresses mechanical issues when they become immediate obstacles to an MOT test. At 12 years old, the Citroen C3 has averaged approximately 7,500 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage for a vehicle of this age. The mileage data shows consistent use, with roughly 8,000 miles covered between the November 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 8,000 miles in the year leading up to the latest record. This steady accumulation indicates the car has not sat stationary for long periods, but it does explain the consistent wear on rubber components and consumable braking parts seen throughout the record. A buyer must inspect the front suspension geometry closely, as the offside front ball joint was flagged as excessively worn in late 2025. The recurring issue of tyres worn unevenly on edges across multiple years suggests a persistent alignment problem or worn suspension bushes that have not been properly rectified. Additionally, since the 2023 test noted thin front brake pads and worn discs, the buyer should verify the current thickness of the braking hardware to ensure the trend of letting parts run down to the limit has actually ceased.
