2018 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · LF18 ACJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with an improving maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 20 January 2026 at 92,248 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following an initial failure on the same day. This suggests the owner was proactive enough to rectify identified issues immediately to ensure compliance. The clean results from January 2025 and 2024 indicate that the vehicle has maintained a consistent standard of mechanical integrity over the last two years. The mileage accumulation is consistent with an eight-year-old van, averaging approximately 11,500 miles per annum. Data shows a steady progression of 15,036 miles between January 2024 and January 2025, followed by another 15,155 miles between January 2025 and January 2026. This regular usage pattern is generally positive for a vehicle of this age as it prevents the seal degradation and component corrosion associated with long periods of standing. There are no significant gaps in the testing history that suggest the vehicle has sat neglected for extended periods or been subjected to excessive use over short distances. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas that caused the failures in early 2024 and early 2026. While the record does not list specific defect codes for those failures, recurring issues in vans often point to wear items such as suspension bushes, brake components, or lighting assemblies. Given the mileage exceeds 90,000 miles, a thorough check of the control arm bushings and the condition of the brake discs is essential. Inspect the structural integrity of the sills and underside to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed despite the clean MOT pass results.
