2016 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · FP16 OVR

The Citroen Berlingo presents a currently roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 30 March 2026 at 195,480 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the available history is stable, showing clean passes in 2023, 2025 and 2026 with only a single administrative failure in early 2024 that carried no recorded defects. No worsening mechanical faults or recurring advisories appear in the dataset. The mileage pattern reflects heavy use for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 19,548 miles per year. The record shows 94,824 miles at the March 2023 test, jumping to 131,854 miles by March 2024, then 162,283 miles in March 2025 and 195,480 miles by March 2026. That equates to about 30,000 to 33,000 miles added annually over the last three years. The lone failure on 28 March 2024 at 131,854 miles, retested and passed four days later with identical mileage and no defects, suggests a paperwork or equipment issue at the testing station rather than owner neglect. Given the high accumulated mileage and clean test history, a buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of consumable and structural items that MOT checks may not deeply expose. The suspension bushes, coil springs and shock absorbers will have absorbed substantial load over 195,000 miles. Brake discs and calipers warrant measurement for wear and binding, despite no advisories being raised. Drivetrain components including clutch, gearbox and engine mounts face elevated fatigue risk at this mileage. The absence of corrosion or exhaust emissions flags in the record is favourable, but underside structural integrity should be physically verified for hidden rust given the vehicle's age and workload.
