2021 Citroen Berlingo 650 EN-Prise PRO Bhdi 1.5L Diesel · LD71 FSA

The most recent MOT test on 29 May 2025 confirms this Citroën Berlingo passed without any defects, though the record is unusual in showing a duplicate entry for the 30 September 2024 test—one pass and one fail at the same mileage (62,911). The absence of advisories or recurring faults in the last two years suggests the vehicle has not experienced major mechanical or structural issues during that period. However, the lack of any recorded defects in either the 2024 or 2025 tests means no direct evidence of wear patterns or maintenance history is visible, leaving critical components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers unassessed by an official tester. The mileage progression indicates unusually high annual usage, with 70,730 miles logged over just five years—approximately 14,146 miles per annum. This exceeds typical expectations for a commercial van of this age, implying accelerated wear on high-stress components such as tyres, brakes, and drivetrain elements. The gap between tests (around 18 months) is standard, but the rapid mileage accumulation suggests the vehicle may have been in frequent, heavy-duty use, potentially straining less durable parts. There is no evidence of long periods of inactivity, which could have mitigated some wear. Given the lack of MOT advisories or failures, there is no direct indication of recurring problems, but a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the suspension system—particularly the rear bushes and coil springs—due to the high mileage. The brakes, including calipers, pads, and discs, warrant close scrutiny for uneven wear or binding, especially if the vehicle has carried heavy loads. Corrosion checks are also essential, particularly around the wheel arches, sills, and underbody, as prolonged exposure to road salt or moisture could compromise structural integrity. The absence of MOT defects does not guarantee these areas are sound, and visual inspection or a basic lift-off check will be necessary to confirm their condition.
