The CITROEN DS3 (2010-15) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.6 BLUEHDI DPFR SS 120 EU6 DSIRE PLUS 6SPD is a stylish three-door supermini with a premium feel. In the UK, it offers compact, easy-to-park dimensions and more individual design than many mainstream small hatchbacks. Its diesel engine is suited to drivers making regular longer trips. It works well for commuters, couples and small households, offering comfortable everyday transport and useful motorway ability. The three-door body is less convenient for rear passengers or fitting child seats, so families may prefer a five-door rival. A six-speed manual helps make longer journeys relaxed, while its distinctive cabin and exterior bring more flair than a typical supermini. Mycarcheck.com logged 134 look-ups across 58 VINs. Average figures: £3,700 private-sale value, 70,000 miles, 7,000 miles yearly and 2.6 previous keepers. These are snapshots, not guarantees. Against the MINI and Audi A1, the DS3 is known for distinctive French styling.
