2006 Citroen Berlingo 1.9L Diesel · LA06 CSZ

The 2023‑07‑13 MOT at 150,123 miles resulted in a pass, confirming the vehicle met the statutory standards on that occasion. However, the history shows repeated failures on suspension bushes, drive‑shaft boots, brake pipe corrosion and structural rust, indicating that the maintenance trend is stable rather than improving. The recorded mileage of 150,123 miles over roughly 20 years averages about 7,500 miles per year, a pace that aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. Mileage increments between successive tests are modest and consistent, with no evidence of rapid accumulation or long periods of standing. A buyer should therefore examine the condition of the rear and front suspension arm bushes, the constant‑velocity joints on both drive shafts, the anti‑roll bar ball joints and their dust covers, and the integrity of the rear brake pipe and outer sills for corrosion. Tyre wear, oil leak monitoring and the presence of any ABS warning lamp should also be verified during a physical inspection. Although the latest test cleared the vehicle, the recurring defects point to underlying wear that may not be apparent on a visual check, making a detailed on‑site assessment essential before purchase.
