Will this car be suitable for low mileage?

I want to buy 1.6 HDi C3 Picasso, 10 plate. I do under 5K per year. Is that going to be a problem?

If it has a DPF, probably, and unless it's a 90 it probably will have one. If it doesn't, no worries.

Neat looking small hatchback. Uses some of the same engines as MINI. 1.6 HDi is the best in the range. Excellent ride quality.
