2012 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · NK62 CLJ

The Citroen Berlingo presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 20 January 2026 at 69,766 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the three preceding annual tests from January 2023 to January 2025 also returned passes with no advisories. The single failure logged on 30 January 2024 at 64,237 miles carries no recorded defects, indicating a administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. No recurring wear items or structural concerns appear across the five-year record. Recorded mileage stays low for a 2012 vehicle. The odometer read 62,106 miles in January 2023, rose to 64,237 by January 2024, then 65,553 in January 2025 and 69,766 by January 2026. That equates to roughly 4,900 miles per year, well under typical light-commercial use. The clean sweep of passes with no advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes or corrosion suggests the previous keeper carried out basic scheduled upkeep, though the sparse entry set gives limited visibility of component condition between tests. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection before purchase. Low annual mileage paired with the 30 January 2024 failure with no defects means the DVSA record alone cannot confirm brake disc thickness, coil spring condition or underbody structural integrity. Standing periods implied by the low use can accelerate rubber perishing and surface corrosion on sills and subframes even when tests show clear. Verify the actual reason for the 2024 failure via the full DVSA certificate, and check the clutch, gearbox and coolant system given the age. The Berlingo shows no warning signs in the data, but fourteen years will test seals and mountings that an MOT pass does not always expose.
