2018 Citroen Spacetourer 1.5L Diesel · KY68 AHL

The 2018 Citroën Spacel Tourer is currently roadworthy, yet the most recent MOT on 28 November 2025 at 84 812 miles recorded a nearside front outer drive‑shaft joint constant‑velocity boot severely deteriorated (6.1.7 (g)(i)). That fault appears after a clean test in December 2024, indicating a slight worsening in the vehicle’s maintenance trend rather than a stable condition. The failure of the boot could allow contamination and eventual joint wear, so it merits immediate attention. Mileage accumulation has been steady at roughly 12 000–14 000 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for an eight‑year‑old vehicle. The MOT entries are spaced annually, with the latest test only nine months before the present date, confirming that the recorded history is recent and not sparse. The progression from 33 241 miles in December 2021 to 84 812 miles in November 2025 shows consistent annual mileage gains without anomalous gaps. A buyer should inspect the deteriorated CV boot for cracks or grease leakage, test the drive‑shaft joint for smooth rotation and proper lubrication, and examine the rear tyre for edge wear close to the legal limit. Brake pads should be checked for thin wear, and the registration‑plate lamp operation verified on both sides. Additionally, a visual check of suspension bushes, chassis corrosion, and any signs of exhaust‑system rust will reveal whether the recurring advisories point to broader structural concerns.
