2004 Citroen Berlingo 1.9L Diesel · MW53 ARX

The 2004 Citroen Berlingo presents a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent test on 10 December 2025 at 42,333 miles returning a clean pass and no defects recorded. Prior tests in December 2024 and January 2024 also passed without advisories, indicating the vehicle has held its mechanical condition across the last three years of testing. Recorded mileage sits at 42,333 miles against 22 years of age, an average of roughly 1,924 miles per year. The DVSA data shows minimal accumulation: 39,801 miles in January 2023, 40,269 in January 2024, 40,447 in December 2024, and 42,333 by December 2025. Such low, steady use suggests long periods of standing rather than daily driving, though the record is sparse with only five entries and no flagged wear on consumables or structure to date. A buyer should still inspect the vehicle in person for age-related corrosion on structural members and suspension mounting points, as the MOT history records no advisories but does not confirm underside condition. The 16 December 2024 failure with no defects listed points to an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, with the retest next day passing cleanly. Given the low mileage and clean test lineage, previous keepers appear to have stored the van lightly and maintained basic compliance. We recommend a physical check of brake discs, coil springs, and suspension bushes for deterioration from inactivity, plus verification of the 2024 failure reason through DVSA documentation before purchase.
