2021 Citroen Berlingo 650 EN-Prise PRO Bhdi 1.5L Diesel · CA71 ABV

The most recent MOT test conducted in October 2025 resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that the vehicle is currently meeting the minimum legal standard for roadworthiness. Looking at the historical trend, there was a notable period of concern in late 2024 when the vehicle failed on several critical points, including a dangerous tyre tread depth and a malfunctioning tyre pressure monitoring system. However, the subsequent clean pass suggests that these specific mechanical and safety issues have been addressed. The maintenance pattern appears to be somewhat reactive, where faults are rectified following an inspection failure rather than being managed through a strictly preventative regime, so verifying the service history is essential to ensure nothing has been overlooked. With a recorded mileage of 42,586 miles over approximately five years, the vehicle has covered an average of roughly 8,500 miles per year. This usage profile is considered typical for a light commercial vehicle of this age and suggests a moderate level of wear on the drivetrain and consumables. The mileage is high enough to ensure that components like the diesel particulate filter and 12V battery have been used regularly, which helps prevent stagnation-related issues, but low enough that major mechanical components such as the engine, gearbox, and suspension assemblies should still be in good operational condition. During your physical inspection and test drive, you should pay close attention to the underside of the vehicle to ensure the previously noted under tray damage has been properly secured and is not dragging or causing wind noise at speed. Although the windscreen damage was noted as a minor issue, inspect it closely for any chips or cracks that could expand due to temperature changes, as this may necessitate a replacement soon. Given the previous failure regarding tyre tread depth and the TPMS malfunction, you must verify that all four tyres have sufficient tread remaining and that the tyre pressure monitoring system is fully operational without any dashboard warning lights. Check for any signs of uneven tyre wear, which could indicate an alignment issue, and listen for any unusual knocks or vibrations from the suspension that might suggest the previous wear has affected the bushes or dampers. Additionally, verify that the windscreen washer system operates effectively and that the nozzles are not blocked, as this was a recurring point of failure in recent tests. Finally, ensure the service book is stamped to confirm that oil changes and fluid replacements have been carried out at appropriate intervals, regardless of the relatively moderate mileage.
