2013 Citroen Dispatch 2.0L Diesel · NG13 FVE

The 2013 Citroen Dispatch presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 June 2025 at 81,404 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the three prior passing tests from May 2022 through June 2024 also show clean sheets. The only blemish is a failure on 26 May 2023 at 68,349 miles that the record lists with no defects, followed five days later by a pass at 68,353 miles; this suggests an administrative or minor non-mechanical rejection rather than a substantive fault, and the subsequent clean passes confirm the issue did not persist. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a thirteen-year-old van. The record shows 63,356 miles in May 2022, 68,353 miles by June 2023, 74,803 miles in May 2024, and 81,404 miles in June 2025. That equates to roughly 5,000 to 6,500 miles per year with no sudden jumps or unexplained gaps. The data is sparse but consistently clean, which points to light commercial or private use and no evidence of clocking or neglected storage. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unbroken pass record since the MOT captures only test-day condition. The tester recorded no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or structural corrosion across the five entries, so no recurring wear trend exists in the official data. Given the vehicle's age and the absence of flagged items, a pre-purchase check should focus on underbody structural integrity, front suspension arm bushes, and rear brake caliper operation, as these commonly degrade on Dispatch vans of this era outside the MOT threshold. The May 2023 failure with zero defects listed warrants a glance at the original test certificate if available, though the immediate pass and clean history dilute any concern. Previous keepers appear to have maintained the van to a basic compliant standard with no skipped tests.
