2018 Citroen Relay 2.0L Diesel · LD67 YCC

The vehicle presents a generally stable maintenance profile, though the most recent MOT test on 11 August 2025 at 26,589 miles indicates a shift toward neglected consumable maintenance. While the vehicle passed the inspection, the tester flagged thinning front brake pads and front tyres worn close to the legal limit on both sides. This transition from the clean 2024 test to the advisory-heavy 2025 result suggests that routine wear-and-tear items are currently overdue for replacement. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,324 miles per year. The records show a consistent, slow accumulation of distance, moving from 10,528 miles in January 2021 to 26,589 miles in August 2025. This low usage often implies lighter mechanical strain on the drivetrain, but the long intervals between tests and the low annual mileage could also indicate periods where the vehicle sat stationary, which can lead to secondary issues like perished rubber components or seized calipers. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and tyre condition. The 2025 advisories regarding front brake pads and edge-worn tyres suggest the vehicle has been driven until components reached their functional limits rather than being serviced proactively. You should also verify the integrity of the engine management system. Although the 2024 failure at 21,538 miles regarding an inoperative MIL was resolved, a diagnostic check is prudent to ensure no underlying sensor faults persist. Check the condition of all exterior lighting and lenses, following the 2023 advisory regarding a defective nearside side repeater. Given the low mileage, inspect the suspension bushes and tyres for signs of age-related cracking or flat-spotting. While the MOT history lacks reports of structural corrosion or suspension failures, the recent focus on worn consumables indicates that a thorough check of all service intervals is necessary to ensure the vehicle has not been subject to deferred maintenance.
