AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The most recent MOT on 16 January 2026 records a pass at 74,090 miles, indicating the vehicle met the legal requirements after remedial work, yet the same date also flagged a failure for excessive play in the off‑side front track rod end ball joint and tyre wear on three wheels. The overall roadworthiness is acceptable for now, but the emergence of a suspension joint fault alongside recurring tyre edge wear suggests a slight deterioration in the maintenance trend that has been partially addressed. At 74,090 miles the 2021 CITROEN BERLINGO averages roughly 14,800 miles per year, a mileage level that is high for its age. The record shows a steady increase: 46,042 miles in January 2024, 60,429 miles in January 2025 and 74,090 miles in January 2026, with no significant gaps indicating prolonged storage. The consistent annual accumulation points to regular use rather than intermittent idle periods, implying accelerated wear on consumables such as tyres, brakes and suspension components. A prospective buyer should give close attention to the three tyres flagged as worn close to the legal limit, confirming tread depth and sidewall condition. The off‑side front track rod end ball joint must be inspected for play and any associated bushings examined for wear. The rear brake disc, noted as pitted but not weakened, should be measured for thickness to ensure sufficient remaining life. The near‑side front CV boot, which was reported with grease spread, warrants a visual check for boot integrity and possible oil leakage. Finally, verify that the stop lamp functions correctly, as a previous failure in 2024 indicates it may have required attention.
