2019 Citroen Relay 35 L2H2 Eprise Bhdi S/S 2.2L Diesel · LC69 YEU

This Citroën Relay has maintained a consistent MOT pass record with no defects recorded across the last five annual tests, including the most recent examination on 2025-11-05 at 48,156 miles. The absence of advisories or failings suggests the vehicle has undergone regular, if not rigorous, servicing aligned with manufacturer intervals. However, the lack of any recorded issues does not preclude the need for a thorough independent inspection, particularly given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The most recent test, just six months ago, confirms compliance with current emissions and safety standards, but wear patterns on critical components—such as suspension bushes, brake calipers, and drivetrain joints—cannot be definitively assessed without physical examination. The mileage progression of approximately 6,879 miles annually over the past seven years reflects typical usage for a vehicle of this age, without any abrupt spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity that might indicate neglect or storage-related deterioration. The consistent annual increments between tests (e.g., 36,450 miles in 2023 to 41,726 miles in 2024) imply steady operation, though the exact service history remains unverified. There are no gaps suggesting the vehicle was left untested for extended periods, which could have allowed corrosion or fluid degradation to develop undetected. A buyer should prioritise an inspection of the suspension system, focusing on worn or cracked coil springs, deteriorated bushes, and binding calipers—common failure points in this age range. The brakes, particularly the rear discs and calipers, warrant scrutiny, as binding or uneven wear could have gone unnoticed without a dynamic test. Structural integrity, including underbody corrosion around the sills, wheel arches, and exhaust mounts, should be checked, especially if the vehicle has experienced wet or salty conditions. Fluid levels and condition (brakes, power steering, and engine oil) should also be verified, as leaks or contamination often precede failures. While the MOT history is clean, these areas demand hands-on verification to ensure no latent issues exist.
