2005 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Petrol · FP05 ACF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted in September 2025 at 109,192 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the vehicle currently meets all minimum safety standards. This follows a period of clean passes in 2022 and 2024, suggesting that the owner has been proactive in addressing potential issues before they result in recurring test failures. The mileage pattern is notably low for a vehicle of 21 years age, averaging approximately 5,200 miles per annum. Between the September 2022 test at 93,167 miles and the September 2025 test at 109,192 miles, the vehicle covered 16,025 miles, confirming low annual usage. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based parts or fluid stagnation. The single failure in August 2023 at 98,664 miles was rectified immediately, given the subsequent clean pass. A buyer should perform a comprehensive physical inspection of the structural integrity and suspension components. Given the age of this Citroen Berlingo, check for corrosion corrosion on the sills, floor pans, and rear mounting points which often escape MOT detection until they become significant. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for perish or cracking, as low-mileage vehicles that sit frequently often dry out. While the record shows no recent brake defects, checking the calipers for binding or discs for pitting will ensure the components have not seized during periods of inactivity.
