Used Citroen Relay Price Guide (UK 2025/26)
Prices depend heavily on age, mileage, condition, and specification. These are approximate ranges for well-maintained examples.
| Age/Generation | Short Wheelbase (L1H1/H2) | Medium Wheelbase (L2H2) | Long Wheelbase (L3H2/H3) | Extra Long Wheelbase (L4H2/H3) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2014-2018 (Euro 5) | £6,000 - £12,000 | £7,000 - £14,000 | £8,000 - £16,000 | £9,000 - £18,000 |
| 2018-2022 (Euro 6) | £10,000 - £18,000 | £12,000 - £20,000 | £14,000 - £22,000 | £15,000 - £25,000 |

Key Specifications
- Payload: Typically from 1,185kg (L1H1) up to 1,995kg (Heavy variants, e.g., 4.0t GVW). Specifics vary by model and Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW).
- Load Volume: Ranges from 8m³ (L1H1) up to a massive 17m³ (L4H3).
- Dimensions (approximate for L2H2 model):
- Length: 5,413mm
- Height: 2,522mm
- Width (inc. mirrors): 2,508mm
- Engine Options (Post-2014, Euro 5/6):
- 2.2 HDi (Euro 5): Typically 110hp, 130hp, 150hp.
- 2.0 BlueHDi (Euro 6): Typically 110hp, 130hp, 160hp.
- 2.2 BlueHDi (Euro 6.2/D): Newer models (post-2019) offer 120hp, 140hp, 165hp.
- Euro Standard: Post-2016 models are generally Euro 6 compliant, crucial for ULEZ/CAZ. Older models (pre-2016) are typically Euro 5. Always confirm with the vehicle's V5C.
What to Look For When Buying Used
- DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter): Essential for Euro 5/6 diesels. Frequent short journeys can clog the DPF, leading to costly regeneration or replacement (around £1,000 - £2,000). Ask about the van's typical usage.
- Timing Belt/Chain:
- 2.2 HDi (Ford-sourced, Euro 5): Uses a timing chain. While generally robust, listen for rattles at startup, which could indicate wear.
- 2.0 BlueHDi and newer 2.2 BlueHDi (PSA-sourced, Euro 6): Use a timing belt. Replacement intervals are typically 10 years or 100,000-112,000 miles. Check for service history proof of replacement, as it's a critical and costly job (circa £400-£700).
- Rust Spots: Check around door sills, wheel arches, rear door hinges, and underbody for surface rust, especially on older vans.
- Suspension: Listen for clonks or squeaks over bumps, indicating worn bushes or shock absorbers, common with heavy loads.
- Electrical Gremlins: Check all lights, windows, central locking, and infotainment. These can sometimes be temperamental.
- Gearbox: Manual gearboxes are standard. Check for smooth changes and no crunching, particularly in 1st, 2nd, and reverse.
- Service History: A full, documented service history is paramount for commercial vehicles that work hard.
Running Costs for Businesses
- Insurance: Insurance groups for the Relay typically range from 30-40 (T1/T2). Expect annual premiums from £600-£1,500+ depending on driver history, excess, and area.
- Fuel Economy:
- 2.2 HDi (Euro 5): Expect 28-35 mpg (real-world).
- 2.0/2.2 BlueHDi (Euro 6): Expect 30-40 mpg (real-world). AdBlue top-ups are also required for Euro 6 models.
- Servicing: Main dealer servicing can range from £250-£500+ per interval. Independent specialists often offer better value. Intervals are typically every 2 years or 20,000-30,000 miles.
- ULEZ/CAZ Compliance: As mentioned, Euro 6 models (generally post-September 2016) are compliant with London's ULEZ and other UK Clean Air Zones. Euro 5 variants are not and will incur charges.
Is the Citroen Relay Right For Your Business?

- Tradespeople: Plumbers, electricians, builders who need to transport large tools, materials, and equipment.
