2015 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · LJ15 AEC

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state based on the most recent MOT pass dated 9 May 2025. The maintenance trend appears exceptionally stable, as the record shows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any recorded defects or advisories across the last three years. This lack of flagged issues suggests a vehicle that has been kept in good mechanical order despite its age. The mileage is high for an eleven year old vehicle, averaging nearly 13,000 miles per year. The odometer reading increased by 17,626 miles between 16 May 2023 and 30 April 2024, followed by a further 17,626 miles leading up to the May 2025 test. This consistent, high-volume usage indicates the car has likely spent much of its life in long-distance or commercial service, which often results in less stop-start wear on the engine than urban driving. While the MOT history is remarkably clean, the high mileage of 142,648 miles necessitates a physical inspection of high-wear components. A buyer should specifically check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these typically degrade under this level of usage regardless of MOT outcomes. The brake discs and pads should be measured for remaining thickness to ensure they are not nearing the end of their service life. Attention should also be paid to the chassis and underbody for signs of corrosion, particularly around the sills and suspension mounting points. Although the tester flagged no structural issues in May 2025, the age and mileage of this Citroen Berlingo make it prone to rust in damp climates. Checking the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements is essential, as these are critical maintenance items that do not appear on an MOT record.
