Timing Belt and other sundry checks

Unread post by azalen99 »

Hi i recently bought a used Citroen C3 3rd gen that looks in great condition however i wonder at the state of the timing belt.
Under the hood everything looks almost spotless. The cars service book has two servicing periods . one in 2018 and one in 2019, after that there's nothing in the booklet. there's also two repair shop/ maintenance bills , one for some body work and paint? in 2021 and one last year for a small servicing like oil and air filters,
I bought the car at a used car dealer. It was imported from France. Factory produced in 2017, petrol, 110 hp engine.

It is a great car but I'm bummed i don't have more info...
I dread to think something is shady...

Can someone please help me to run a vin check on it?

We don't provide this service. You need to pay for a check with a company that checks the history of cars against outstanding finance or insurance write offs / insurance categories and we don't provide that service, nor will the VIN provide any details of the service history. You would need to get that from a dealer.
