2015 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · DF65 HTG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of deferred repairs regarding recurring mechanical issues. The most recent test on December 12 2025 at 100,352 miles showed a pass only after a failure for a blown offside front position lamp. While the lamp was rectified, the record indicates a persistent rear brake binding issue that has persisted across the last three tests. This suggests that the previous owner addressed only the minimum requirements to pass the MOT rather than resolving the underlying mechanical faults. At 100,352 miles over eleven years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 9,123 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a light commercial vehicle of this age. The data shows consistent mileage intervals, with 2,549 miles covered between January 2024 and December 2024, and another 4,405 miles covered between January 2025 and December 2025. This steady use indicates the vehicle has not sat for long periods, though it contributes to the observed wear on rubber components. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the rear braking system and suspension. The tester repeatedly flagged binding rear brakes and a worn rear suspension arm bush, indicating that the calipers may be seizing or the rubber components are reaching the end of their functional life. Furthermore, the December 2025 report noted general age-related corrosion on the suspension component mounting areas and chassis rails. While not deemed excessive at that time, the presence of corrosion requires close monitoring to ensure the structural integrity of the chassis does not degrade in future tests.
