2019 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · LD69 SNV

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status having passed its most recent inspection in September 2025 at 120,517 miles with no recorded defects. This indicates an improving maintenance trend compared to the previous year, where several mechanical and wear issues were identified. The transition from multiple advisories in 2024 to a clean sheet suggests that the owner addressed the noted suspension and tyre concerns previously flagged by the tester. The Berlingo reflects a high-usage profile, averaging approximately 17,200 miles per year over its seven-year life. Between October 2022 and September 2024, the vehicle covered 16,383 miles, showing consistent and heavy utilization. This high annual mileage typically accelerates the degradation of suspension components, braking systems, and drivetrain elements. The consistent annual interval between tests suggests the vehicle has been in regular use, which is often better for engine seals and fuel systems compared to long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension geometry given the history of component wear. The 2024 test flagged play in both the nearside front track rod end and the offside front suspension arm ball joint. While these appear resolved in the 2025 record, the recurring nature of play in the steering assembly suggests the rubber bushings and ball joints may be nearing the end of their service. The 2023 advisory regarding thin rear brake pads also necessitates a check of the current pad thickness and disc condition to ensure the high mileage has not led to uneven wear or overheating of the rotors.
