2007 Citroen Relay 2.2L Diesel · FL57 NPV

The 2007 Citroen Relay presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 March 2026 at 150,878 miles passed with no defects recorded, following clean passes in February 2025 at 148,293 miles and February 2024 at 145,113 miles. The upkeep pattern shows consistency across the last four successful examinations. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,941 miles, typical for a nineteen-year-old light commercial vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 143,466 miles in December 2022, rising to 145,107 at the December 2023 failure, then 145,113 by February 2024. The 2,771-mile gain between the 2025 and 2026 tests reflects normal use. The only blemish is the 22 December 2023 failure at 145,107 miles, which listed no defects, implying an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a component fault. Given three consecutive passes with zero advisories and a failure carrying no recorded defects, the previous owner maintained the van to a basic compliance standard without neglected consumables appearing in the data. No recurring suspension bushes, brake disc, corrosion, or exhaust emission issues emerge across the timeline. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity beneath the chassis and subframes, as MOT pass sheets with no advisories do not capture incipient rust on a vehicle of this age. Verify the brake calipers and coil springs operate free of binding, and confirm the 2023 failure cause with DVSA to rule out a concealed defect. The clean record warrants cautious confidence rather than assumption of fault-free condition.
