2018 Citroen Dispatch 1.6L Diesel · LG68 VDP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than preventative service pattern. The most recent test in October 2025 at 115,566 miles passed with only a minor advisory regarding a damaged rear tyre. This follows a clean pass in November 2024 where the vehicle initially failed for a non-functional headlamp but was rectified immediately. While the current status is stable, the historical data shows that components are only addressed once they reach a point of failure. The mileage profile reflects high-intensity use for an eight-year-old van, averaging approximately 14,400 miles per annum. There is a significant surge in activity between September 2023 and November 2024, during which the vehicle covered over 20,000 miles in just 14 months. This rapid accumulation of mileage typically puts heavy strain on the drivetrain and braking system components, which is consistent with the mechanical failures regarding brake discs and CV boots recorded in earlier inspections. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension and braking assembly for signs of accelerated wear. The September 2023 test test at 73,783 miles flagged a severely deteriorated nearside front drive shaft CV boot and fluctuating rear service brakes. While these were repaired, the high annual mileage suggests that other rubber-bound components and suspension bushes may be nearing the end of their functional life. Additionally, the pitting and scoring on front discs noted in 2023 indicate the vehicle may have been subjected to heavy loads or environmental corrosion, necessitating a thorough check of current pad thickness and caliper condition.
