2010 Citroen Relay 2.2L Diesel · M777 SAG

This Citroën Relay’s most recent MOT, conducted just over a year ago on 23 June 2025 at 102,226 miles, confirms it remains roadworthy with no defects recorded. The test history since 2022 shows a stable pattern of compliance, with no recurring advisories or failures beyond the single minor oversight in June 2023—a rare anomaly that was promptly rectified by July of that year. The absence of major advisories or repeated faults suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though the lack of pre-MOT servicing records means critical components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers have not been systematically inspected. The tester’s silence on emissions, structural integrity, or binding brakes implies these areas passed inspection, but wear beyond MOT thresholds could exist. The recorded mileage of 102,226 miles over 16 years aligns with typical usage for this age, averaging around 6,389 miles annually. There are no suspicious gaps or spikes in mileage—each test interval spans roughly 12 months, and the progression from 90,689 miles in June 2022 to 102,226 miles in June 2025 is consistent. The minor discrepancy between the 2023 tests (93,925 vs. 93,929 miles) suggests the vehicle may have been stationary or lightly used during that period, but this does not indicate neglect. However, the absence of intermediate servicing records means the buyer cannot assume routine checks were performed between MOTs. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of suspension components—particularly the rear bushes and coil springs—due to the vehicle’s age and mileage. The front and rear brake calipers and discs warrant close examination for uneven wear or binding, as these are common failure points in older vehicles that may not have been serviced beyond MOT requirements. Structural corrosion, especially around the wheel arches, sills, and subframe, should be assessed, as this is often overlooked in basic MOT checks. Finally, the exhaust system and catalytic converter should be inspected for leaks or excessive rust, as these are frequently ignored until they fail an MOT. The lack of advisories does not guarantee these areas are sound.
