I recently acquired a Citroën C3-XR 1.6L Automatic Pioneer Edition. It's a local, one-owner vehicle, manufactured in Hong Kong in August 2016. It's been used by a fellow countryman. The odometer reads 18,000 km. I've had it driven a lot, and it's fully insured. I just bought it for commuting and practicing driving. The main reason for buying it was the cheap price.

Please consult the dealer for details regarding the vehicle's condition and other issues.
Odors are difficult to convey through images, so our quality inspectors conduct subjective smell assessments and record them. For vehicles with severe smoke or mold odors, if deep ozone sterilization is ineffective, we will downgrade the vehicle and mark the report with a red "Odor Warning" at the top.
A proper inspection relies on equipment, not just eyes. The inspector should use a paint thickness gauge to measure 50-60 points across body panels; original paint is typically 80-150 microns. An OBD diagnostic scanner reads stored and pending fault codes across all control units, and for EVs it also reads battery state of health and charge cycle counts. The car must go on a lift for the underbody check: frame rails, suspension components, oil leaks and accident repair marks are only visible from below. A battery tester checks starting voltage and charging system health, and a tread depth gauge documents tire condition. Ask for the report to include raw readings and dated photos rather than a simple pass/fail summary - that is what makes it verifiable.
This is after-sales support we are very happy to provide. Since overseas alignment machines often lack databases for Chinese brand vehicles, we will send you screenshots of the core chassis parameters from the service manual, making it easier for your technician to manually input the data for precise adjustments.
