2015 Citroen Berlingo 1.6L Diesel · SC65 LGF

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness status is currently failing, as evidenced by the most recent MOT test in December 2025. This failed test occurred at 175,721 miles, placing the vehicle in the same category as a 2015 CITROEN BERLINGO with approximately 16 years of age and 15,975 miles per year. The maintenance trend is clearly worsening, with the vehicle failing twice on the MOT record. The first failure in December 2025 resulted in an engine MIL inoperative or malfunction, which is a critical diagnostic finding that must be addressed immediately. The second failure in February 2024 was caused by a hydraulic fluid leak, indicating that the vehicle has been neglected for over two years without routine maintenance. This pattern of repeated failures suggests that basic upkeep was skipped, and the car is now in a state of severe mechanical deterioration. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally high for a vehicle of this age, with the most recent test occurring at 175,721 miles. This figure represents a significant gap from the vehicle's original 16,497 miles in February 2024, indicating rapid mileage accumulation over the past two years. While the vehicle has maintained a certain level of operational speed, the sheer volume of miles suggests that the drivetrain and suspension components are approaching their wear limits. The failure in December 2025 at this mileage level confirms that the car is no longer capable of normal driving under these conditions. A buyer must inspect the vehicle in person to identify the specific mechanical risks highlighted by the MOT history. The most serious structural and mechanical issues include the engine failure, which requires immediate professional diagnosis, and the severe deterioration of the anti-roll bar ball joint dust cover. The brake system is also compromised, with a pitted or scored disc, a pitted or scored disc, and a worn brake pad. The suspension arms and bushings are worn to the point where excessive movement is not prevented, which could lead to a complete loss of suspension integrity. Additionally, the oil leak and the worn brake disc require immediate attention to prevent catastrophic failure. Given the history of multiple failures, the vehicle is not in a safe state for continued use and requires urgent professional assessment before purchase.
