Our Verdict
Proceed with confidence given the except
The primary focus for this specific vehicle should be verifying the repair following the 2023 MOT failure. Ensure there is evidence that the nearside and offside rear valve stems were correctly replaced or repaired. Because the mileage is so low, you should also check for signs of 'dry rot' on tyres or rubber seals, as vehicles that sit idle for long periods can suffer from age-related degradation despite low usage.
Ask the seller for any service records to confirm that oil changes have been performed regularly, even if the vehicle hasn't been driven much. With a 2.0L diesel engine, ensuring the fuel system and battery have been maintained is vital, especially given the low annual mileage which can lead to battery discharge or fuel degradation.
As a 2.0L diesel, the Citroen Relay is designed for efficiency in commercial tasks, though actual fuel economy will depend heavily on load and driving style. Being a 2016 model, it should comply with most modern emissions standards, but always check specific local zone requirements.
Insurance groups for these vans vary based on driver age and usage, but the 1997cc engine is a standard configuration. Maintenance costs for a low-mileage van are often lower due to less wear on brakes and suspension, but you should budget for essential age-related maintenance like timing belts and fluid changes which are time-dependent rather than just mileage-dependent.
Inspect the rear area thoroughly, specifically looking for any signs of recent work related to the valve stem failure noted in the October 2023 MOT. While the 2024 and 2025 tests passed with no defects, a visual check of the rear suspension and valve components is prudent.
Given the low mileage of 18,949, inspect the tyres for cracking or flat spots, which can occur when a vehicle is not driven frequently. Additionally, check the service history for evidence of regular oil changes, as diesel engines require consistent lubrication regardless of how many miles are covered annually.
This 2016 Citroen Relay presents with remarkably low mileage, having covered only 18,949 miles in nearly ten years. The MOT history shows one failure in October 2023 regarding damaged valve stems, but all tests since then, including the most recent in November 2025, have passed with no defects recorded. For a diesel van of this age, the mileage is significantly lower than typical commercial usage patterns.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Citroen Relay to provide a comparative benchmark.
