2009 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · PE09 NDV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the most recent testing history. The latest MOT conducted on 26 March 2025 at 138,165 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following an initial failure on the same day. This suggests the current owner is proactive in rectifying immediate issues to secure a passing certificate. Since that test, the vehicle has operated for over a year without a new MOT entry, indicating it has remained operationally viable through the current period. The recorded mileage of 138,165 miles over 17 years equates to an average annual usage of approximately 8,127 miles. This figure is consistent with typical usage for a light commercial vehicle of this age, avoiding heavy strain on the drivetrain and suspension components. Between March 2023 and March 2024, the vehicle covered 6,655 miles, while it added another 6,716 miles in the year leading up to the 2025 test. This consistent accumulation indicates a regular driving pattern, which often prevents the degradation of seals associated with long periods of standing stationary. While the recent records show a clean pass, the failures noted in March 2023 and March 2025 necessitate a physical inspection. Because the record does not list the specific reasons for these failures, a buyer must verify if the issues involved recurring components such as suspension bushes, brake leaks, or structural integrity of the chassis. Given the age of the Berlingo, close attention should be paid to corrosion on the sills and exhaust system. Checking the condition of the rubber mounts and shock absorbers is also essential to ensure that the lower mileage has not maskedrelated mechanical wear in the suspension geometry.
