2011 Citroen DS3 1.6L Diesel · YP60 YMM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent inspection in October 2025 at 131,071 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. This follows a period of clean passes in 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the previous owners were proactive in addressing potential issues before they resulted in test failures. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a 15-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per year. The record shows steady accumulation, with roughly 5,000 miles driven between October 2024 and 2025, and another 5,180 miles between October 2023 and October 2024. This regularity suggests light, daily use rather than long periods of standing, which often leads to the degradation of seals and rubber components in older Citroen models. The single failure recorded in October 2023 at 121,257 miles is the only anomaly in an otherwise clean history. While the specific defect is not listed in the provided summary, the immediate pass on the retest indicates the issue was likely minor and rectified quickly. A buyer should still physically inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, as these are common points of failure on the DS3 at this mileage. Given the age of the vehicle, a check for structural corrosion on the sills and rear mounting points is also necessary to ensure that integrity has not begun to degrade beyond what a standard MOT might detect.
