2022 Citroen Dispatch 1000 ENT PRO B-HDI SS 1.5L Diesel · WR22 BNE

The vehicle holds a current MOT pass certificate dated 27 February 2026, recorded at 57,509 miles. The maintenance trend is broadly stable, though the record reveals a pattern of minor but recurring defects that suggest routine consumable wear is being addressed only at the point of test failure. The most recent test cycle is particularly telling: the van failed on the same day it eventually passed, with the tester initially flagging an inoperative offside registration plate lamp and a nearside front tyre worn to 2.0mm with inner edge wear. The wiper defect was rectified before the retest, indicating the owner reacted to the failure rather than proactively maintaining these basic items. A year earlier, in February 2025 at 48,916 miles, the tester noted a nail in the offside front tyre and inner front brake disc wear, alongside perishing on the nearside rear tyre. These are not isolated incidents. Failing on tyre condition in consecutive test cycles points to a vehicle that is being run hard and checked infrequently between annual tests. The mileage accumulation is high for a four-year-old van, averaging roughly 14,377 miles per year. The gap between the February 2025 test at 48,916 miles and the February 2026 test at 57,509 miles confirms 8,593 miles were covered in that single twelve-month period, which is consistent with sustained commercial or long-distance use rather than a vehicle sitting idle. There are no anomalous gaps or sudden drops in the recorded mileage, so the odometer history appears coherent. However, the sparse MOT record, with only two tests in the vehicle's life, limits the depth of historical analysis. A van of this age and type would typically have more entries if it had been through multiple ownerships or tested annually from first registration. A buyer should focus the physical inspection on three areas directly supported by the test history. First, the front suspension and steering geometry require close examination. The inner edge wear on the nearside front tyre is a classic indicator of toe misalignment or worn suspension bushes, and this should not be dismissed as simple tyre wear. Second, the braking system warrants a thorough check. The February 2025 advisory on inner front brake disc wear, combined with the high annual mileage, suggests the van has endured repeated heavy braking cycles. A buyer should inspect disc thickness, pad condition, and caliper operation, particularly at the rear, where binding issues are common on light commercial vehicles used under load. Third, the general electrical and lighting function should be verified. The repeated registration plate lamp fault, even if minor, hints at possible moisture ingress or a broader issue with the rear lamp cluster wiring. Given the van's working life and mileage, a thorough underbody inspection for corrosion, exhaust integrity, and drivetrain wear is also advisable before purchase.
