Our Verdict
A low-mileage example of an older commer
Focus your investigation on the repairs carried out following the April 2025 MOT failure. You should verify that the near-side front brake binding issue was fully resolved and not merely a temporary adjustment. Check the exhaust system for stability, as a missing rubber mount was previously recorded.
Given the vehicle's age and the nature of the 2.2L diesel engine, request evidence of timing belt replacements and regular oil changes. Low mileage over a long period (approx. 6,000 miles per year) can sometimes lead to different wear patterns than high-use commercial vehicles, such as perished rubber components.
The 2.2L diesel engine is built for utility, but fuel economy will be typical for a large van of this era. Tax and insurance costs will vary based on the user's profile, though as a 2007 model, it may be subject to older emissions tax brackets.
Maintenance costs for this model often center on suspension and braking components, as evidenced by the 2025 MOT record. Expect a moderate annual spend to keep a vehicle of this age roadworthy.
Specifically inspect the near-side front brake for any signs of overheating or binding, as this was a significant failure point in 2025. Check the tyre valve stems on the near-side front and off-side rear to ensure they were replaced and are not leaking.
Inspect the central exhaust mount for security and check the headlamp lenses for any residue or 'product' mentioned in the 2025 advisory to ensure light output is sufficient. Finally, check the registration plate and side repeater lamps to ensure all electricals are functioning.
This white 2007 Citroen Relay has recorded 116,103 miles as of March 2026. The MOT history shows a clean pass in the most recent test, though the April 2025 test resulted in multiple failures including binding brakes and exhaust mount issues. It represents a low-mileage option for a vehicle of this age.
No aggregate MOT data is available for the Citroen Relay to establish a general reliability trend.
