2013 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · MJ13 KTU

The vehicle presents a concerning maintenance trend based on the most recent testing data. While it passed its MOT on October 9, 2025 at 137,198 miles, the preceding failure on that same day reveals significant neglect. Specifically, the tester flagged multiple critical electrical failures, including the stop lamps, position lamps, and dipped headlamp, alongside a power steering malfunction. The transition from a multi-point failure to a pass suggests the owner only addressed the bare minimum repairs required to legal the vehicle rather than performing preventative maintenance. At 137,198 miles over 13 years, the vehicle averages approximately 10,554 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a light commercial vehicle of this age. The mileage accumulation remains consistent, with roughly 9,600 miles covered between September 2024 and October 2025, and another 9,600 miles between August 2023 and September 2024. This steady usage puts consistent strain on high-wear components and suspension assemblies, which is evidenced by the recurring issues in the record. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the power steering system, as the failure noted in 2025 often indicates pump wear or steering rack leaks. The MOT history also shows a pattern of poor consumable management, with the nearside rear tyre falling below the legal 1.6mm limit in 2025 and the offside front tyre showing uneven wear. The windscreen has been flagged for damage since at least 2023, which should be checked for stress cracks that could compromise structural integrity over time. Given the electrical failures, a full test of the wiring loom and bulb sockets is necessary to ensure no corrosion is present.
