2012 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · GY62 OEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 12 June 2026 at 58,328 miles. The maintenance trend is stable, though the latest test introduces new advisories regarding a worn nearside rear tyre and a severely deteriorated offside front anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover. These are typical wear-and-tear items, but they indicate a slight decline in the vehicle's condition compared to the clean pass recorded in June 2025. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,166 miles per year. The record shows consistent, low-volume usage, with a steady increase from 9,752 miles in September 2015 to the current 58,328 miles. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or suspicious gaps in the testing history, suggesting the car has been used sparingly and regularly over its lifespan. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the front suspension and steering components. The June 2024 test at 50,514 miles flagged a worn nearside front lower suspension arm bush, and the most recent 2026 test highlights the anti-roll bar linkage. This pattern suggests the front end is beginning to age regardless of the low mileage. The recurring mention of tyres worn on the edge, seen in both May 2020 and June 2026, may point to an underlying tracking or alignment issue that requires correction. The electrical system has been a minor point of failure in the past. The vehicle failed in May 2019 and June 2023 due to incorrect indicator colours and non-functional lamps. While these are simple fixes, they suggest a reactive rather than proactive approach to basic bulb and lens maintenance. Given the low mileage and the age of the vehicle, checking for perished rubber seals and signs of corrosion on the underbody is advisable, as cars that stand for long periods can develop moisture-related issues.
