This car has served me well but I have hardly driven it for the past year due to a knee injury, so the battery has been going down as it's barely had any use, and since Christmas it has only had 1 drive. I can start it using a lithium battery with jump leads. The battery may well be ok if you drive it regularly as it never ran down before my knee injury, anyway you can take the jump lead battery thing with you which is pretty new. The other thing to mention is that there is a crack in the windscreen and the windscreen will need replacing. I had a quote for 250 pounds to replace it by someone located 25 mins away from me but I can't drive it there. The MOT is until 22 September. The car has got some superficial scratches on the sides, which are just cosmetic and were there when I bought it a few years ago. It's been a great car to own, but I am forced to make choices because of my my knee injury. There was an airbag recall by Citroen on this make and model of car and I had the airbag replaced by their recommended Citroen dealer, so that has all been done. Thanks
