Mileage and MOT

MOT, from the government's MOT records (DVSA, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), as of 2 November 2026: the latest record we hold ran out on 9 March 2024; ask the dealer for the current MOT.

It has had 14 MOTs. The latest, on 27 April 2024, failed.

It failed on: stop lamp(s) with a multiple light source more than 1/2 not functioning high level stop lamp; rear position lamp adversely affected by the operation of another lamp; stop lamp(s) adversely affected by the operation of another lamp both stop lamps; and 2 more.

Advisories at the latest test: offside front seat belt flexible stalk damaged but still functioning as intended; offside front anti-roll bar linkage ball joint has slight play; exhaust has a minor leak of exhaust gases front pipe flexi; and 9 more.

Mileage at that test: 61,545 miles. The advert says 10,000 miles, fewer than the MOT record, so ask the dealer which is right.

Advertised mileage is about 76,300 miles lower than the median mileage of a 2012 Citroen DS3 on AskCar.
