Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2022 Citroen Berlingo 1000 En Prise Ed Bhdi?

Moderate sample. 469 vehicles on record. Figures are indicative — the specific vehicle's history matters more than these averages.

This 2022 Citroën Berlingo diesel is slightly below the UK average for first-time MOT passes at 75.2% versus 80%, suggesting moderate reliability concerns rather than a standout performer. The dangerous defect rate of 8.1% is well within acceptable bounds and shouldn't deter a prospective buyer.

At just under 47,000 miles on average, these vans are running fairly light for their age, which partly explains why failures aren't more frequent—expect issues to emerge more clearly as mileage climbs. With an average of 1.1 advisories per vehicle, minor wear items are cropping up regularly, so budget for routine maintenance and have any purchase inspected by a diesel-savvy mechanic before committing.

The 2022 Citroen Berlingo 1000 En Prise Ed Bhdi passes its MOT first time at roughly the UK average rate (84.1%) — solid but worth checking this vehicle's history carefully.

⚠️ About 1 in 12 of these vehicles have had a dangerous MOT failure at some point — usually tyres or brakes, and often a one-off issue rather than a persistent problem. The group stats won't tell you which one you're looking at.

For context

🔧 Average reliability. Passes at roughly the UK rate — not a standout, not a problem vehicle. Individual history makes all the difference.

🔍 The dangerous defect figure is real. Most are one-off tyre failures or brake issues — not structural problems. But it's exactly why checking the individual vehicle's history is essential, not optional.

These stats describe 469 vehicles as a group. The specific vehicle you're looking at could be the one good example or the one outlier. Run its registration to find out.
