2017 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · NA67 CWG

The 2017 CITROEN BERLINGO currently holds a roadworthiness status of Pass, though this is contingent on the maintenance trend being stable rather than worsening. The most recent MOT test on 2025-08-23 at 273,337 miles was passed, indicating the vehicle is currently operational. However, this is not a static record; the failure on 2025-08-23 at the same mileage indicates a specific issue with the nearside front coil spring, which suggests the previous owner may have neglected routine checks on critical structural components. Regarding the mileage pattern, the vehicle is approximately 9 years old with 273,337 miles, representing a high consumption rate for its age class. The data shows a significant gap between the September 2023 test at 234,154 miles and the October 2024 test at 262,487 miles, where the vehicle failed on the offside front stop lamp. This gap suggests that the owner may have been using the car infrequently or had a prolonged absence, leading to accelerated wear on consumables and structural elements. Given the recurring failure of the offside front stop lamp and the unresolved coil spring fracture, the buyer must inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and brake systems. The suspension bushes and coil springs are the most likely candidates for inspection, as the spring failure indicates a lack of regular maintenance. Additionally, the binding calipers and brake discs must be checked for corrosion, as the oil leak noted in the 2025-08-23 test may have contributed to brake pad degradation. A thorough physical inspection is required to determine if the structural risks are present or if they have resolved, as the vehicle has already failed twice on critical components.
