2005 Citroen Berlingo 2.0L Diesel · FN55 VSF

The Citroen Berlingo passed its most recent MOT on 1 November 2025 at 169,091 miles with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend across the last three years reads as stable. The vehicle carries a clean test history with no advisories or mechanical faults logged at any point. Two failed tests in late 2024 and 2025 both show zero recorded defects, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than underlying wear. Annual mileage sits at roughly 8,000 miles, typical for a 21-year-old van. The records show only 1,853 miles added between the October 2023 pass at 166,238 miles and the October 2025 pass at 169,091 miles. Such low yearly use over the last two years suggests the Berlingo spent extended periods idle, which raises the risk of perished rubber components and seized brake calipers even though the tests found nothing. The repeated fail-with-no-defect entries on 21 October 2024 and 21 October 2025 point to documentation or roadworthiness presentation problems rather than worn parts. A buyer should still verify the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc condition in person, since standing vehicles commonly develop binding calipers and flat-spotted tyres that a clean MOT will not reveal. Given the sparse and fault-free record, no structural corrosion or drivetrain concern is evidenced in the data. Inspect underneath for chassis rust and check the exhaust emissions during a cold start, as 169,000 miles on original mounts and hoses warrants a hands-on check before purchase.
