2021 Citroen Berlingo 1.5L Diesel · LA21 BCZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass in April 2026, but the maintenance history reveals a concerning trend of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test at 77,850 miles showed a failure due to thin front brake pads, an inoperative registration lamp, and a damaged offside rear tyre exposing cords. While these issues were rectified to secure a pass, the recurring nature of failures suggests the owner only addresses mechanical and safety faults when forced to by the MOT tester. At 77,850 miles over five years, this Berlingo has averaged approximately 15,500 miles per year, which exceeds the national average for a light commercial vehicle. The mileage accumulation is consistent and heavy, with nearly 22,000 miles covered between April 2024 and April 2025, and another 16,700 miles in the year leading up to the 2026 test. This high usage rate places significant stress on drivetrain components and suspension assemblies, which aligns with the frequent wear noted in the record. A buyer must perform a close physical inspection of the suspension geometry and tyres. The record shows a history of tyres reaching the legal limit or suffering uneven wear across both 2024 and 2025, which often indicates poor alignment settings or worn suspension bushes. Furthermore, the repeated mention of low brake fluid levels in 2025 and thin pads in 2026 suggests that the braking system is not being regularly serviced. You should check for fluid leaks around the calipers and hoses to ensure the high-mileage usage has not-compromised the structural integrity of the braking components.
