2013 Citroen Relay 2.2L Diesel · PJ62 ABV

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the available data, though the record is significantly outdated. The most recent test conducted in July 2022 at 224,388 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, showing an improvement from a failure just eight days prior. However, because the current date is July 2026, the vehicle is four years overdue for its annual MOT test, rendering the current mechanical condition and structural integrity unknown without a fresh inspection. The Citroen Relay has covered 224,388 miles over its 13-year lifespan, averaging approximately 17,260 miles per year. This high-mileage profile indicates heavy commercial use, which stresses the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system. The narrow gap between the July 2022 failure at 224,371 miles and the subsequent pass at 224,388 miles suggests a minor issue was rectified quickly at that time, but the lack of data for the following four years is a significant risk factor. A physical inspection must prioritise the components most susceptible to high-mileage stress. Given the age and distance, a buyer should specifically check for advanced corrosion on the chassis and structural members, alongside inspecting worn suspension bushes and shock absorbers. The braking system should be examined for binding calipers or thin discs, as high annual mileage leads to accelerated component wear. Since the vehicle has not been tested in four years, checking for fluid leaks and perished rubber hoses or bushings is essential before any purchase.
