2017 Citroen Relay 2.0L Diesel · KX17 APV

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a clean record of passes over the last four years. The most recent test on 21 May 2025 at 102,403 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates the vehicle currently meets the minimum legal safety and environmental standards without any immediate mechanical failures flagged by the tester. Mileage accumulation has increased significantly in the last two years. Between 4 May 2022 and 21 April 2023, the vehicle covered 8,627 miles. However, the distance jumped to 14,369 miles by 17 May 2024, followed by a further 20,653 miles by May 2025. This acceleration in use suggests a shift toward heavier duty cycles, which typically increases the wear rate on drivetrain components and suspension. The MOT history is unusually clean for a commercial vehicle of this age. The only anomaly is a failure on 29 April 2024 at 81,749 miles, which was resolved and passed just over two weeks later. Because the records show no recurring advisories for corrosion, brake disc wear, or suspension bushes, there is no evidence of chronic neglect. A buyer should focus a physical inspection on common wear points for high-mileage vans that MOT tests sometimes overlook. Check the condition of the clutch and the smoothness of gear transitions given the recent increase in annual mileage. Inspect the underside for structural rust and check the depth of the tyre treads, as the lack of advisories in the record does not guarantee that consumables are not nearing the end of their service life.
