2014 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · PX14 WCG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach. The latest test in April 2026 at 164,212 miles shows a pass following a failure just eleven days prior. While the vehicle passed its recent inspection, the trend of recurring steering and lighting faults suggests that components are only addressed once they reach a failure threshold. The transition from a clean pass in 2025 to multiple failures in 2026 highlights a worsening mechanical state. At 164,212 miles over twelve years, this Berlingo has an average of approximately 13,700 miles per year, which is higher than the national average. The mileage data shows consistent usage, with roughly 9,500 miles covered between April 2024 and April 2025, and another 9,400 miles in the following year. This high level of mileage places significant strain on the drivetrain and suspension assembly, which explains the frequent failures of ball joints and CV boot components noted in the record. A buyer must inspect the front-end geometry closely. The record shows repeated issues with the offside track rod end and the offside front anti-roll bar linkage, both of which were flagged for play or excessive movement between 2025 and 2026. The split CV boot noted in 2025 also warrants a check for grease leakage and damage to the drive shaft joint. Furthermore, the nearside rear brake disc was noted as worn in the most recent 2026 test, indicating the braking system is nearing the end of its service life and will require replacement shortly to avoid future failure.
