Mechanical Assessment

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

The Citroen Relay maintains a clean and stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 30 September 2025 at 33,103 miles with zero recorded defects. The vehicle has consistently cleared its annual inspections since the first test in 2021, suggesting a pattern of diligent maintenance and minimal mechanical degradation. The minor faults identified in previous years, such as a defective wiper blade in 2023 and frayed seat belt webbing in 2025, represent standard consumable wear rather than systemic mechanical neglect. The recorded mileage of 33,103 miles over six years averages approximately 5,500 miles annually, which is significantly lower than typical usage for a commercial vehicle of this class. The progression of mileage remains linear and consistent across all annual test dates, indicating the van has seen regular, light use rather than long periods of inactivity or extreme heavy-duty cycles. This steady accumulation suggests the drivetrain and major components have not been subjected to the accelerated wear often associated with high-mileage fleet operations. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the interior cabin and load area, specifically verifying the condition of the seat belt mechanism flagged in the 2025 test to ensure the fraying was addressed correctly. Given the low mileage, examine the tyres for signs of age-related perishing or sidewall cracking, as rubber compounds can degrade over time regardless of tread depth. While the MOT record shows no history of structural corrosion or suspension issues, a thorough check of the underside is still recommended to confirm the integrity of the chassis and brake lines, ensuring the vehicle remains in the clean condition suggested by its test history.

Our Verdict

This Citroen Relay is a strong candidate for a buyer seeking a modern, low-mileage commercial vehicle. With a consistent record of passing its MOTs on the first attempt, it presents as a well-maintained example of a 2020 model.

When inspecting this Relay, pay close attention to the rear seat belt webbing noted as an advisory in the 2025 MOT. While minor, ensure it does not affect the safety or function of the seats if you intend to carry passengers. Given the low mileage, check the service history to ensure the oil and filters have been changed regularly, as light use can sometimes lead to different wear patterns than high-mileage motorway work.

Test drive the vehicle to ensure the 2.0-litre diesel engine pulls cleanly and that the gearbox shifts smoothly. As a Euro 6 compliant vehicle, it is suitable for ULEZ and Clean Air Zones, but check that the AdBlue system is functioning correctly, as this is a common area for maintenance on modern diesel vans.

As a Euro 6 diesel, this van is relatively efficient for its size, though actual fuel economy will depend heavily on your driving style and load weight. It falls into the standard commercial vehicle tax bracket, which is a fixed annual rate in the UK.

Insurance costs will vary based on your business usage and location, but generally, the Relay is reasonable to insure. Annual maintenance should be straightforward, though you should budget for periodic AdBlue top-ups and standard wear-and-tear items like tyres and brakes. Expect an estimated annual running cost of £1,800-£2,200, accounting for fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing.

Focus your inspection on the bodywork, particularly around the rear doors and sliding side door, which are common areas for heavy use on commercial vans. Check the condition of the tyres and brakes; while the MOT history shows no failures, these are consumables that may need replacing soon given the vehicle's age.

Verify the condition of the windscreen, noting the minor wiper blade defect flagged in 2023, and ensure the heating and ventilation systems are fully operational. Inspect the load area for signs of excessive heavy-duty wear, such as damaged flooring or wheel arch dents, which might indicate it has been worked harder than the low mileage suggests.

Registered in July 2020, this white Citroen Relay has covered just 33,103 miles, which is significantly lower than average for a vehicle of this type. The MOT history is excellent, showing a clean run of passes since its first test in 2021. The vehicle appears to have been used sparingly, making it a potentially high-value asset for a business or conversion project.

The Citroen Relay is a workhorse platform known for its robust mechanicals, though it requires consistent maintenance to keep the emissions systems in optimal condition.
