2022 Citroen Berlingo Feel Puretech S/S A 1.2L Diesel · NK72 AFN

The vehicle holds a current MOT certificate following the August 2026 test at 1,744 miles, confirming it meets the minimum legal standards for road use. The maintenance record shows a stable trajectory with no recurring mechanical failures across the two available inspections. The August 2026 examination returned a pass, though the tester flagged a defective front windscreen wiper blade as a minor advisory. This single consumable wear item does not indicate underlying engineering faults. The previous inspection in August 2025 at 1,137 miles returned a clean pass with zero defects or advisories. The absence of repeated failures suggests the previous keeper maintained routine service intervals and addressed wear items promptly. The odometer reading of 1,744 miles over a four-year registration period equates to approximately 436 miles annually. This exceptionally low accumulation points to minimal daily driving or extended periods of static storage. The gap between the August 2025 and August 2026 tests shows only a 607-mile increase, reinforcing a pattern of light utilisation. Vehicles that sit for prolonged intervals often develop different degradation profiles than high-mileage equivalents. Rubber components, seals, and fluid reservoirs can dry out or harden regardless of wheel rotation. The sparse but clean mileage progression indicates the vehicle has not been subjected to heavy commercial loading or intensive stop-start driving cycles. A physical inspection should focus on components vulnerable to static storage rather than high-stress mechanical fatigue. Examine all rubber suspension bushes, brake hoses, and tyre sidewalls for dry rot or cracking, as prolonged inactivity accelerates elastomer degradation. Verify the condition of the front and rear brake discs for surface rust or uneven pad wear caused by intermittent use. Check the battery terminals and charging system for corrosion or voltage drop, since infrequent journeys rarely allow the alternator to fully recharge a deep-cycle unit. Inspect the underfloor and wheel arches for moisture accumulation or early panel corrosion, which can develop when a vehicle remains parked in damp conditions. Confirm that the flagged wiper blade has been replaced and that the washer jets spray correctly.
