2019 Citroen Relay 2.0L Diesel · CF19 ABU

The 2019 Citroen Relay is currently roadworthy, with the most recent MOT on 2026-02-14 at 94,019 miles showing no defects. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the prior test in 2025-02-10 at 80,275 miles also passed without issues. However, a failure on 2025-02-03 at 79,968 miles—just a week earlier—raises questions about the reliability of the records, as no defects were logged. This inconsistency suggests potential administrative errors or unreported minor faults that may have been resolved quickly. The vehicle’s mileage of 94,019 miles over seven years equates to an average of 13,431 miles annually, which is above the typical range for its age. Notable gaps in the MOT history include a 14-month interval between the 2022-12-23 test (55,155 miles) and the 2024-02-19 test (66,311 miles), during which the car accumulated 11,156 miles. Subsequent annual increases of 14,000 miles (2024-2025) and 13,748 miles (2025-2026) indicate consistent usage, which may accelerate wear on components like brake discs, suspension bushes, and exhaust systems. A buyer should inspect the suspension for worn coil springs or degraded bushes, as high mileage often exacerbates these issues. Check for brake disc warping or uneven wear, given the frequent use. Despite no corrosion reports, the vehicle’s age and mileage warrant a thorough underbody inspection for rust, particularly in seam-welded areas. The absence of advisories in recent tests is positive, but the 2025 failure highlights the need for a pre-purchase mechanical check to verify unresolved concerns.
