2019 Citroen Relay 2.0L Diesel · FE19 ACJ

The Citroen Relay presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent examination. In the 11 March 2025 test at 77,213 miles, the tester recorded a pass with no defects or advisories. Prior inspections on 11 July 2023 at 76,995 miles and 18 March 2022 at 59,399 miles also returned clean passes. As of 14 July 2026, that latest certificate is sixteen months old, yet the maintenance trend shows no worsening mechanical or structural faults across the available history. Mileage data reveals an unusual usage pattern for a seven-year-old van. The vehicle covered 17,596 miles between the March 2022 and July 2023 tests, a rate above the typical 11,030 annual average for its age. From July 2023 to March 2025, the odometer advanced only 218 miles across twenty months. That near-dormant period implies the Relay spent long stretches stationary, a care pattern that often masks degraded suspension bushes, binding calipers or tyre deterioration not always visible during a static MOT. No recurring faults or advisories appear in the DVSA record, so the buyer faces no documented structural or mechanical red flags. Nevertheless, the extended idle span warrants a physical inspection of brake discs for corrosion, suspension components for perished bushes, and underbody structural integrity for rust. The tester flagged nothing, but a van left standing can develop flat-spotted tyres and seized handbrake mechanisms that a clean certificate does not preclude.
