2017 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · FH17 TNO

The Citroen Berlingo presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 31 March 2026 at 93,574 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend is stable. Prior to that pass, the vehicle failed on 24 March 2026 at 93,299 miles, yet the failure carried no recorded defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. A similar pattern occurred on 1 April 2025 at 81,797 miles, with a fail and immediate pass on the same day, again showing no defects logged. Mileage accumulation is consistent with typical use for a nine year old van. The record shows 71,688 miles at the April 2024 test, rising to 81,797 by April 2025 and 93,574 by March 2026. That equates to roughly 10,000 miles per year, with no sudden jumps or prolonged standing periods evident. The MOT data is sparse on advisories, offering no flagged wear on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion across the three years covered. Given the absence of any recorded advisories or defects, the previous owner appears to have kept the Berlingo to a basic pass standard without neglect showing in the official record. The repeated same day fail and pass entries suggest the vehicle was presented without a valid prior certificate or with paperwork gaps rather than unresolved faults. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of brake discs, coil springs, and underbody structural integrity, as MOT silence does not confirm component condition between tests. Focus physical checks on suspension arms, exhaust emissions under load, and any signs of structural rust around sills and subframes. The clean history provides reassurance, but the two anomaly failures without defects warrant confirmation that the logbook and test certificates match the DVSA timeline before purchase.
