2013 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · LS13 SBU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by the most recent MOT test in April 2025 at 201,148 miles which passed with no recorded defects. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the previous three years. Although a single failure was recorded in March 2024, the immediate re-pass at the same mileage indicates that any identified faults were rectified promptly, suggesting the vehicle has maintained a functional standard despite its high mileage. At 201,148 miles, this 13-year-old van reflects high usage, averaging approximately 15,500 miles per annum. The data shows consistent and heavy use, with roughly 7,000 miles covered between March 2023 and March 2024, and another 7,700 miles in the year leading up to the April 2025 test. This regular accumulation suggests the vehicle was likely used for long-distance transit, which typically places significant strain on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to lower-mileage city cars. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components most susceptible to high-mileage wear. Given the 200,000-mile threshold, a thorough check of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and lateral links is essential to identify signs of play or fatigue. The braking system should also be scrutinized for binding calipers or thin discs, as the high mileage accelerates the degradation of these consumables. While the MOT record is clean, the structural integrity of the chassis and exhaust mounting must be verified for corrosion to ensure that the heavy usage history has not compromised the vehicle's frame.
