2014 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · LD14 ACU

The 2014 Citroen Berlingo’s most recent MOT on 2025-11-05 at 122,781 miles recorded a pass with no defects, but the same date also shows a fail with no defects listed, creating ambiguity. This inconsistency suggests potential administrative errors or misrecorded test outcomes. The vehicle’s maintenance history shows no recurring mechanical issues, with all prior tests—2024-03-12 and 2022-12-13—also reporting no defects. The absence of structural, brake, or suspension failures in the record indicates a stable roadworthiness trend, though the lack of recent testing (over eight months since the last MOT) raises concerns about its current compliance. The vehicle’s mileage of 122,781 miles over 12 years equates to an average of 10,232 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for its age. The MOT intervals show a gap of 15 months between the 2022-12-13 and 2024-03-12 tests, followed by a 10-month gap to the 2025-11-05 test. These intervals suggest irregular maintenance practices, though no specific wear patterns are evident from the data. The clean record for defects, despite the age, implies the previous owner prioritized basic upkeep, though the absence of detailed advisories limits insight into component longevity. A buyer should verify the vehicle’s current MOT status and inspect for signs of wear in high-mileage components, such as suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc corrosion, which may not appear in MOT records. The lack of exhaust emission or structural integrity issues in the history is reassuring, but the overdue MOT and ambiguous test outcomes warrant a professional inspection. Pay particular attention to the rear brakes, as binding calipers or uneven wear could develop without regular checks, and confirm the exhaust system’s integrity, as leaks or rust are common in older vehicles.
