2017 Citroen Relay 2.0L Diesel · HN67 HMC

The vehicle presents a strong roadworthiness profile with a stable maintenance trend following a specific mechanical setback. The most recent test conducted in November 2025 at 15,807 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded, indicating that any previously identified issues have been successfully rectified. This clean sheet across the last three annual tests suggests the vehicle is currently being maintained to a standard that meets operational requirements despite its low usage. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 1,756 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap in usage between November 2020 and November 2021, where the vehicle covered only 5,932 miles in that period. Since 2021, the usage has remained relatively consistent, averaging roughly 1,500 miles per annum. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, it increases the risk of component degradation from dry-rott rubber parts or perished seals due to long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus attention on the failure in October 2023 at 13,420 miles, where the tester flagged an excessive engine oil leak. Although the vehicle passed subsequent tests, a physical inspection of the engine bay and gaskets is necessary to ensure the leak was properly sealed and not merely a weeping seal. Given the low mileage, the inspector should also check the brake discs for corrosion and the tyres for sidewall cracking, as these components often suffer on vehicles that sit stationary for extended periods.
