2021 Citroen Berlingo 1000 Driver Bluehdi 1.5L Diesel · LR21 WKM

The most recent MOT test on 2026-03-27 confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy at 101,995 miles, with no defects or advisories recorded. This marks a consistent pattern of clean passes across all four tests since 2021, including a rare double entry in March 2024 where both a pass and a failed test appear at identical mileage—likely an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical issue. The absence of recurring advisories or defects suggests the vehicle has not suffered from persistent failures in critical systems like suspension, brakes, or emissions. However, the most recent test occurred just four months ago, which is acceptable but not ideal for a vehicle with this mileage, as it falls slightly outside the optimal window for proactive maintenance checks. The recorded mileage of 101,995 miles over five years equates to approximately 20,400 miles annually, which is elevated for a vehicle of this age and category. This rate of usage implies significant wear on high-friction components such as brake discs, pads, and suspension bushes, as well as potential stress on the drivetrain and exhaust system. Notably, there is a 23,415-mile gap between the 2024 and 2025 tests, followed by another 21,622 miles before the latest pass—suggesting either extended periods of low usage or delayed servicing. While the MOT history does not reveal any failures tied to this mileage accumulation, the high annual average warrants scrutiny of consumable parts and fluid levels. Given the lack of recorded defects, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the suspension system, particularly the condition of coil springs, bushes, and dampers, as these are prone to fatigue at this mileage. The brakes, though not flagged in the MOT, should be assessed for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has been driven hard or stored in damp conditions. Corrosion checks are also essential, focusing on wheel arches, sills, and the underbody near the exhaust system, where moisture accumulation can accelerate structural weakening. The absence of advisories does not preclude gradual degradation, so attention to fluid levels—brake, coolant, and differential oil—will provide further insight into how the vehicle has been maintained.
