2020 Citroen Relay 35 HVY L4H2 ENT Bhdi SS 2.2L Diesel · CK70 AEC

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2023-10-04 at 74,450 miles recorded a pass with no defects, but the preceding test on 2023-09-28 at 74,426 miles resulted in a failure despite no defects being noted. This rapid succession of a failure followed by a pass suggests potential inconsistency in testing or unresolved issues that were rectified between tests. The lack of defect details in both records limits definitive conclusions, but the short interval between tests raises questions about the vehicle’s mechanical stability. No recurring faults or structural concerns are evident from the provided data. The vehicle’s mileage of 74,450 miles over six years equates to an average of 12,408 miles annually, which is above the typical range for its age. This high usage rate could accelerate wear on components such as suspension bushes, brake discs, and drivetrain elements. The MOT history spans just 11 days, offering limited insight into long-term maintenance trends. The absence of recorded defects in the pass suggests no immediate critical issues, but the sparse data means underlying problems—such as corrosion or progressive mechanical degradation—remain unverified. A buyer should prioritize a thorough inspection of the suspension system, particularly for worn bushes or coil springs, and check for brake disc warping or caliper binding, as high mileage often exacerbates these issues. The exhaust system and corrosion-prone areas like the underbody should also be examined, as these are common failure points in older vehicles. Given the lack of detailed MOT records, a pre-purchase survey by a qualified mechanic is strongly recommended to identify any hidden faults not captured in the DVSA data.
