2015 Citroen Dispatch 1.6L Diesel · YY65 TYA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a concerning trend of reactive rather than proactive care. While it passed its most recent test in May 2026 at 136,757 miles, this followed a significant failure just one month prior. The transition from a failure involving multiple safety-critical defects, including an ABS fault and missing brake pedal anti-slip provisions, suggests that essential repairs are only addressed when forced by the MOT tester rather than through routine scheduled servicing. The mileage profile indicates high-intensity usage, with 136,757 miles covered over 11 years, which averages to over 12,400 miles per year. There is a notable gap in records between February 2022 and April 2026, during which the vehicle covered more than 15,000 miles. This rapid accumulation of mileage explains the consistent wear observed on the braking system and lighting throughout the history. The repeated failure for thin pads and scored discs across multiple years suggests the vehicle likely performs heavy commercial work which accelerates the degradation of consumable parts. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system and suspension components. The record shows persistent pitting and scoring on brake discs dating back to 2021, indicating that components are frequently left until they reach the limit of their functional life. The ABS fault flagged in April 2026 requires verification via a diagnostic tool to ensure the underlying sensor or module issue was rectified and not just cleared. Additionally, the uneven wear on the front tyres noted in 2026 suggests potential wheel alignment issues or worn suspension bushes which should be checked to avoid further premature tyre costs.
