The CITROEN DS3 (2010-15) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.6 THP SS 165 EU6 DSIRE 6SPD is a three-door small hatchback, sitting in the stylish, premium-minded end of the UK supermini market. Its distinctive DS3 design and punchy 165hp petrol engine give it more character and pace than an ordinary city runabout, while remaining compact for everyday driving. It suits commuters and couples wanting an engaging daily car, or buyers who value individuality over maximum rear-seat access; the three-door body is less convenient for frequent family trips. Against rivals such as the MINI Hatch and Audi A1, the DS3 stands out for French styling and a lively, entertaining feel. EU6 status is a useful point for city driving. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 10 checks across six distinct VINs, a modest sample. Those cars averaged £3,800, 54,000 miles, 5,000 miles a year and 2.5 previous keepers, offering useful context rather than a definitive market picture.
