2018 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · OJ68 MCM

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status following its successful MOT test on 23 April 2025 at 99,022 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history reveals a consistent pattern of failure immediately prior to a pass. In both 2024 and 2025, the vehicle failed the test just one day before a successful result, suggesting that minor mechanical defects or consumable adjustments are addressed only when prompted by the annual inspection process. Mileage accumulation is consistently high for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 12,378 miles per year. Between the 2023 test at 59,882 miles and the 2024 test at 81,299 miles, the car covered over 22,000 miles in a single year. This rapid usage continued with another 17,723 miles recorded in the following year. Such high-frequency use typically results in increased stress placed on the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system compared to lower-mileage city cars. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and braking assembly, as high mileage often accelerates the wear of coil springs, shock report, and rubber bushes. While the record shows no current advisories, the recurring failures just before re-tests indicate that the vehicle operates on a reactive rather than preventative maintenance schedule. Check for structural corrosion on theんですよ and the condition of the brake discs to ensure the high-mileage usage has not led to significant degradation or binding calipers.
