2022 Citroen Berlingo 1000 Worker PRO B-HDI 1.5L Diesel · NK22 AVC

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 2026-03-23 confirms it remains roadworthy, though the immediate preceding attempt on 2026-03-17 failed without recorded defects—a rare anomaly suggesting either a temporary administrative error or a last-minute pre-test adjustment. The 2025-03-19 test at 16,080 miles shows no issues, indicating a stable pattern of passing without advisories or major faults. However, the lack of defects in any test does not preclude hidden wear; the absence of advisories or recurring failures could imply either diligent maintenance or deferred attention to components that haven’t yet reached failure thresholds. The recorded mileage of 22,070 miles over four years—roughly 5,500 miles annually—is unusually low for a vehicle of this age, suggesting either minimal use or prolonged periods of inactivity. The gap between the 2025 and 2026 tests spans 12,000 miles, yet no advisories or defects appeared, which might indicate the vehicle was either stored under controlled conditions or driven in a manner that avoided excessive stress on critical systems. The sudden failure on 2026-03-17 without defects is unusual and warrants clarification, as it could signal an oversight in the test process rather than a mechanical issue. Given the sparse MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of high-wear components such as suspension bushes and coil springs, particularly if the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary, as this can accelerate deterioration. The brakes, while not flagged in tests, should be checked for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has been driven inconsistently. Exhaust emissions and structural integrity—particularly in the floorpan and wheel arches—should also be scrutinised, as low mileage does not guarantee absence of corrosion or neglect. The lack of advisories does not rule out deferred maintenance, so attention to fluid levels (brakes, power steering, coolant) and tyre condition (tread depth, sidewall integrity) is essential.
