On the Citroen Berlingo Multispace specifically, petrol is the strongest at 83.5%, and this petrol version sits 2.9 points above the 80.6% model average.
What it means if you are buying one
The petrol Citroen Berlingo Multispace is the stronger side of this model on MOT data. Still judge the individual car, but the fuel type is a mild point in its favour. Check the exact car, decode the VIN and check the mileage before you bid.
Mileage is part of the answer
The average petrol Citroen Berlingo Multispace had covered 39,204 miles at test, against 46,823 for the diesel. That is below average for a car this age, worth a mileage-consistency check since an unusually low reading is sometimes clocking rather than luck.
Fuel type and mileage are tangled together: diesels are usually bought by higher-mileage drivers, so some of any gap between fuels is the miles rather than the engine. The per-year figures on the Citroen Berlingo Multispace page separate age from fuel if you want to isolate one.
