2012 Citroen Relay 33 L2H2 120 HDI 2.2L Heavy oil · LL61 ABX

The 2012 Citroen Relay demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent September 2022 MOT at 67,622 miles recording a pass and no defects. Previous tests from 2019, 2018, and 2015 also showed no issues, suggesting consistent maintenance. The single 2015 failure occurred on a test with identical mileage to the subsequent pass, though no defects were logged. This absence of recurring faults indicates the vehicle has not developed significant mechanical or structural concerns over its 14-year lifespan. Mileage progression reveals a low annual average of 4,830 miles, reflecting either infrequent use or prolonged inactivity. The 2015 test at 20,862 miles was followed by a 3.5-year gap before the next MOT in 2018, during which mileage increased by 4,300 miles. Subsequent tests show gradual accumulation, with 3,181 miles added between 2018 and 2019, and 9,273 miles between 2019 and 2022. This pattern suggests the vehicle may have been stored for extended periods, potentially affecting components like suspension bushes or corrosion-prone areas. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for wear, particularly coil springs and bushes, given the low mileage and potential inactivity. The exhaust system and brake discs should also be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, as prolonged standing can degrade these parts. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the lack of recent tests beyond 2022 means the vehicle’s current condition relies on the owner’s maintenance practices since then. No structural rust or emission issues were flagged, but physical inspection remains essential to confirm the absence of hidden damage.
