Our Verdict
A cautious recommendation. While the veh
Prospective buyers should prioritise verifying whether the 'not excessive' oil leak noted in February 2025 was repaired or if it persists. You should also check the service history for evidence of timing belt and water pump replacement, as these are critical maintenance items for the 1.6L diesel engine.
Negotiate based on the status of the windscreen damage and the offside front tyre wear mentioned in the 2025 record. Ensure that the track rod end and CV boot issues noted in 2024 were professionally addressed, as these are essential for steering and drivetrain longevity.
The 1560cc diesel engine is designed for efficiency, though fuel costs will vary based on annual mileage. As a 2015 model, it will fall into a standard diesel tax bracket, and insurance groups for the Berlingo are typically modest, making it a cost-effective choice for utility use.
Typical maintenance costs for this age of vehicle include regular oil changes and the replacement of wear items like brake pads and tyres, as seen in the MOT history. Annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic servicing, are estimated to be moderate.
Carefully inspect the engine bay for signs of active oil leaks, referencing the 2025 MOT advisory. Examine the underside of the vehicle; the 2025 record notes it has been undersealed, so ensure this was used for protection rather than to mask existing corrosion.
Check the condition of the windscreen for the damage noted in 2025 and verify the current tread depth of the offside front tyre. Finally, test the steering for any play or noise, specifically looking for evidence that the 2024 track rod end and CV boot advisories were resolved.
This black 2015 Citroen Berlingo has recorded 84,648 miles as of February 2026. The MOT history from 2022 to 2026 shows five consecutive passes, although three of these tests included advisories for wear-and-tear items and an engine oil leak. It represents a typical example of a mid-mileage diesel utility vehicle from this era.
Aggregate reliability data for this specific model is unavailable, but the vehicle's own history shows a pattern of passing MOTs despite recurring wear-and-tear advisories.

Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2015 model year cars.
- 1.6 HDi injector seal blow-byModerate
The 1.6 HDi can leak combustion gases past the injector seals, creating the classic chuffing noise, diesel smell and tar-like deposits around the injectors.
- DPF additive-system and regeneration troubleModerate
Short-trip use can clog the DPF and upset the Eolys additive system, leading to warning lights, limp mode and expensive catch-up maintenance.
- Sliding door roller and latch wearModerate
The twin sliding doors are a big Berlingo selling point, but worn rollers, cables and latches make them heavy, noisy or awkward to shut cleanly.
