Our Verdict
A solid consideration for commercial use, provided the recent MOT history is clarified. The vehicle shows a consistent testing pattern but has recently required two tests within a single month to achieve a pass.
When inspecting this specific 2.2L diesel van, focus on the recent MOT history. The fact that it failed on 15 July 2025 and passed just two days later on 17 July 2025 suggests a minor, quickly rectified issue, but you should ask the seller exactly what caused those failures.
Check the service history to ensure the BlueHDI engine has received regular oil changes, as these diesel units are sensitive to maintenance intervals. Given the L3 wheelbase configuration, also inspect the load area and any signs of heavy commercial wear that might not be captured in an MOT test.
As a 2.2L diesel, running costs will be dictated by annual mileage and load weight. Expect moderate fuel economy typical of a large van, though this will fluctuate based on how much weight the Relay is carrying.
Tax and insurance groups for a 2021 model will vary depending on the specific insurance provider and the driver's profile, but commercial vehicles generally fall into higher insurance brackets. Maintenance costs should be budgeted for regular diesel particulate filter (DPF) considerations and heavy-duty component replacements.
While the most recent MOT passed with no defects, the history shows two failures (one in July 2024 and one in July 2025). You should specifically ask for the details of these failures to ensure they were not related to recurring suspension or braking issues.
Inspect the tyres and brake pads, as these are common items that can trigger MOT failures in high-mileage commercial vehicles. Additionally, check the condition of the van's white exterior for any signs of significant dents or structural repairs that could affect its value.
This 2021 Citroen Relay 35 L3 X BlueHDI S/S has covered 56,750 miles since its registration in July 2021.
