2016 Citroen Relay 2.2L Diesel · BX16 ABN

This Citroen Relay presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 19 December 2025 at 87,271 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. The vehicle has maintained a consistent pass rate over several years without any recorded advisories. The mileage pattern is typical for a commercial vehicle of this age. It has covered approximately 8,727 miles per year, showing a steady increase from 62,657 miles in December 2022 to 87,271 miles in December 2025. The gap between December 2023 and December 2024 saw an increase of 6,985 miles, while the following year saw a higher accumulation of 7,470 miles. This consistency indicates regular use rather than periods of prolonged standing, which helps prevent seals from perishing and brakes from seizing. The absence of any flagged defects or advisories across four years of testing is unusual for a ten-year-old van. No mentions of corrosion, suspension bush wear, or brake disc deterioration appear in the history. This suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance by the previous owner. A physical inspection should still focus on common age-related wear that MOT testers may overlook if it does not meet a failure threshold. Check the condition of the chassis for surface rust and inspect the clutch pedal feel and gear transitions. Given the clean record, a buyer should verify that the service history matches this level of care, specifically looking for evidence of oil changes and timing belt replacements.
