2016 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · SA16 XPG

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status as evidenced by the most recent MOT on February 22, 2024, which passed with 191,045 miles and no recorded defects. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the vehicle has consistently met minimum safety and emission standards without immediate mechanical failures. However, as it has been over two years since the last recorded test, the vehicle is currently overdue for an annual inspection to ensure no new mechanical degradation has occurred in the intervening sixteen months. The mileage profile reflects heavy usage for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 19,100 miles per year. A significant period of activity occurred between February 2022 and February 2023, where the vehicle covered 24,560 miles in just twelve months. This high rate of accumulation suggests consistent long-distance use, which typically accelerates the wear on drivetrain components and suspension bushings compared to average examples. The gap between May 2020 and February 2021 shows a drop in usage with only 1,600 miles driven, but the overall trend remains high-intensity. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the suspension and braking system, given the high mileage-related stress. The 2023 test flagged damaged offside rear ABS wiring, and while this did not cause a failure, it highlights a potential for electrical or mechanical wear in the undercarriage. Because the vehicle is nearing 200,000 miles, a close look for play in control arms, worn shock absorbers, and thinning of brake discs is essential. Checking for structural corrosion on the chassis and mounting points is also vital to ensure that the high mileage has not led to accelerated metal fatigue or rust.
