2016 Citroen Relay 2.2L Diesel · PJ16 HVD

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent inspection data. The last recorded test in November 2021 at 80,623 miles passed with no defects noted, indicating that the mechanical and structural issues identified in previous years were addressed. However, as the last MOT is now over four years old, the current roadworthiness remains speculative without a fresh inspection to ensure no new degradation has occurred during the long interval between tests. The mileage pattern is consistent with a ten-year-old van, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per annum. The data shows a significant plateau in usage between April 2019 and November 2020, where the vehicle covered only 756 miles over seventeen months. This suggests a period of prolonged inactivity or very limited use, which can sometimes lead to flat-spotted tyres, seized calipers, or battery degradation. Since the 2021 test, the mileage has not been updated, meaning the vehicle has not been tested recently. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the bodywork and exterior trim, specifically the areas where the 2019 failure occurred. The record noted loose bumpers, damaged offside mirrors, and sharp body edges, which suggest a history of minor impacts or poor repair quality. Given the 2019 advisories regarding front tyres being worn to the legal limit, a thorough tread depth check and inspection for uneven wear are essential to determine if alignment issues have been neglected. Additionally, the chassis and suspension components should be checked for corrosion, as the record does not provide recent data on structural integrity for the last several years.
