2015 Citroen Dispatch 1.6L Diesel · PF64 AFO

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a clear shift toward neglected minor wear items. While the most recent test in March 2026 at 122,942 miles passed, it so despite multiple defects including pitted front brake discs, tyres worn to the legal limit, and restricted visibility from obstructed wipers. This mirrors the pattern seen in the April 2025 test where the tester flagged thin brake pads and binding rear brakes, suggesting that preventative component replacement is being deferred until failure or inspection. The mileage profile is consistent with an eleven-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per annum. There is a significant increase in usage between January 2024 (97,613 miles) and March 2026 (122,942 miles), where the vehicle covered over 25,000 miles in just fourteen months. This increased workload likely correlates with the appearance of recurring mechanical and consumable issues in the more recent records, which were absent during the lower-mileage periods between 2019 and 2023. A prospective buyer must personally inspect the front braking system thoroughly, as the history of pitting, scoring, and thin pads indicates a lack of proactive disc maintenance. The recurring failure of the CV joint boot, noted in both 2022 and 2023, necessitates a close check of the drive shafts for grease leakage or joint play. Furthermore, the repeated reports of worn tyres and obstructed windscreen wipers across multiple years suggest the owner only addresses the bare minimum required to pass the MOT rather than performing comprehensive vehicle care.
