2018 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · LE18 ABZ

The 2018 Citroen Berlingo demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with the most recent MOT on 2025-07-30 at 83,650 miles recording a pass and no defects. Previous tests from 2024 and 2023 also passed, though two consecutive failures in August 2023 at 55,614 and 55,418 miles—both with no recorded defects—suggest potential minor issues resolved before the subsequent pass. The absence of recurring critical faults in later tests indicates the vehicle’s mechanical condition has stabilized, with no evidence of worsening trends in suspension, braking, or structural integrity. The mileage of 83,650 miles over eight years aligns with average annual usage of ~10,456 miles, reflecting typical wear for the model. A notable gap exists between the 2023-08-24 test (55,614 miles) and the 2024-08-28 test (79,333 miles), a 23,719-mile increase over 12 months, which could indicate periods of heavy usage or infrequent motoring. This rapid accumulation may accelerate wear on components like brake discs, suspension bushes, and exhaust systems, though no such issues were flagged in the 2024 or 2025 tests. The MOT history remains otherwise clean, with no advisories or repeated failures. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these are common wear points in vehicles of this age. The braking system, particularly rear calipers and discs, warrants scrutiny due to the 2023 failures, even without recorded defects. Corrosion in underbody components, especially around the exhaust and chassis, should also be checked, as rapid mileage increases can exacerbate environmental wear. The absence of structural integrity issues in the records is reassuring, but a physical inspection remains essential to confirm the vehicle’s overall condition.
