2004 CITROEN BERLINGO1.9L Diesel

The vehicle is currently in a stable roadworthiness state based on the most recent MOT pass on 11 October 2024. The record shows a consistent pattern of passing tests over the last three years, although the failures on 1 October 2024 and 18 September 2023 suggest the owner typically addresses defects immediately upon failure to secure a pass. The absence of any recorded advisories in the final three tests indicates a vehicle that currently meets basic legal requirements without pending mechanical concerns. The mileage is exceptionally low for a twenty-two year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,586 miles per year. Between September 2022 and October 2024, the odometer moved only 2,878 miles, from 120,021 to 122,899 miles. This very low annual usage suggests the car has spent significant periods stationary. While this reduces wear on the drivetrain, long periods of inactivity often lead to perished rubber components and seized calipers. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas prone to degradation from disuse rather than wear. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or corrosion, as these often fail on low-mileage older Citroens. Inspect the brake discs for surface rust and ensure there are no binding calipers. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough check for structural corrosion on the chassis and sills is essential, as the MOT record does not explicitly detail the absence of rust in the advisory sections.
