Cheap 40+ MPG MOT Failure 1.0 - 1.9L Cars For Sale In Sherborne, Dorset
5 Cheap 40+ MPG MOT Failure 1.0 - 1.9L Cars For Sale In Sherborne, Dorset
Searching for a cheap car without an MOT can save you money upfront, as these vehicles are usually priced significantly lower than those with a valid MOT certificate. Buying a "No MOT" car is ideal for mechanics, enthusiasts, or anyone planning repairs or restoration. However, it’s important to be aware that these cars haven't passed the mandatory safety and emissions tests, so they may require costly repairs or might not be roadworthy immediately. Always factor in potential repair costs and legal requirements before purchasing. Be sure to view the car in person and conduct a thorough inspection before making your decision.

Citroen DS3 - 1.6 THP DSport Plus Euro 5 3dr
MOT failure on 2nd fast idle emissions test, believed to be due to a slight misfire in March 2025. Did have spark plugs and oil change March 2025, along with other MOT failure items fixed (new tyre & replaced bulb). Also ran some Cataclean through it, but emissions failed on retest still. I've owned the vehicle since 2017. Fun little car to drive, but since working from home it has seen very little mileage each year as it's our second car. I've not got around to getting it fixed, so it's time to sell it unfortunately. Plenty of photos on the advert. Overall physical condition is decent for a car of that age. A few little chips and scratches about, and there is some fading on the roof. Rear parking sensors also have shown a fault for some time. Comes with 2 sets of keys. Battery is currently flat, so will need jump to get started. Please bear in mind there is no MOT so you cannot test drive on the road. Please note this vehicle is affected by the Takata airbag recall (as are all 2009-2019 C3 / DS3's). Citroen will replace those for free, I'm awaiting on an appointment for the replacement to be done. Advert description is honest as it can be, and there are loads of photos. If you want to make an offer, then please do so via message beforehand rather than turn up on my drive expecting to haggle on price. Thank you.

Vauxhall, CORSA, Hatchback, 2013, Manual, 1248 (cc),5 doors
2013 corsa 1.3 cdti turbo diesel. A very clean example. Chain driven so no timing belt to worry about and cheap to run. 134678 miles will rise as car is still used daily. Full v5 present in my name and registered to my address. Hpi clear with full report avaliable. Mot until the end of January 2026. £35 tax per year which is pennies, the car runs on air it is very good on fuel. Book pack present with some history and receipts. It doesn't use any fluids, oil and coolant is always the same level. No lights on dash or issues while driving. This is a perfect 1st car or run around. Or use it for what I've been using it for; ferrying me back and for to work and fair play it's been amazing, starts every time every morning and drives without fault. Costs nothing to run, tax or insure. It pulls well and is pretty nippy for what it is only being a 1248cc engine. Its just had a major service with all filters including fuel filter changed and fresh oil with new sump plug. Tyres have plenty of tread and wheels are in very good condition. This car has a touch screen stereo with android auto/apple car play which your phone plugs into. Satnav works off Google/apple maps. The car benefits from electric windows and mirrors, trip computer, air con, remote central locking, the car has a SPARE WHEEL which is rare these days, daytime running lights, traction control/esp/abs/power steering etc etc. Exterior bodywork is very clean and presentable with very few issues bar one (see below) I'd say around 90% (there are a few marks here and there but nothing worth mentioning) Interior is very clean with a few marks but nothing crazy id say 95%. This car has two issues as follows: There is a small mark on the passenger rear door (see pic),the rest of the car is presentable with little to no damage. The windscreen is cracked but outside the drivers view so it isn't an mot fail. (Not in zone swept area A or B) It's in the black part only and passed the last 2 mots like this. If this bothers you you can get this fixed for around £35 excess on your insurance and it won't be classed as a claim. Mechanically the car is fine and is used everyday, a nice example of a 2013 corsa with a good spec and drives very well with no lights on dash. It starts, drives and stops every morning without fail. I can deliver locally to swansea no problem or I live right by llansamlet train station so can meet you there no worries. I'm also just off junction 44 m4 birchgrove so easy to get to. I don't mind you test driving this car as long as you like with proof of insurance, or I can take you for a drive in it however long you need for peace of mind. I've been 100% honest as I can in this listing, any questions I will answer as accurately as I can please message me. Please no timewasters or tyrekickers. I am open to realistic reasonable sensible offers, the car is valued at £1830 on the hpi report but I've taken into account the few minor issues. Thanks.

Once going this is a great little 4WD! No MOT, it will start with help but the clutch is tight and possibly has blown the pipe? Approximate mileage as the battery is flat to show on the dashboard. Good tyres-BF Goodrich. Last driven in the winter on private land. Last on the road nearly 2 years ago. A project or a fun farm truck!
