2020 Citroen Berlingo 1.5L Diesel · MM20 CZX

The most recent MOT for the 2020 Citroen Berlingo was conducted on 2024-04-16, with the vehicle recorded at 28,423 miles. It passed the test, but two specific issues were noted: a severely deteriorated offside front outer drive shaft joint constant velocity (CV) boot and a damaged front windscreen that did not impair the driver’s view. These findings indicate minor but notable defects requiring attention. The CV boot issue is a safety-critical concern. A deteriorated boot can allow dirt and moisture to enter the joint, leading to accelerated wear and potential failure of the drive shaft. This defect was explicitly highlighted in the MOT report, suggesting it was a significant enough issue to be recorded. The windscreen damage, while not classified as a failure, may require repair to prevent further degradation or visibility issues. The vehicle’s mileage of 28,423 miles over six years equates to approximately 4,737 miles per year, which is lower than average for its age. This could imply lighter usage or periods of inactivity, which might lead to issues like component stiffness, corrosion, or fluid degradation. However, the lack of additional defects in the MOT history suggests the car has not shown widespread mechanical problems to date.
