Citroën Berlingo Multispace (2008 - 2018) 1.6 HDi VT 5d (2009/09) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

I'm a grandfather and need space for the grandchildren and their clobber, as well as our dog. Need to take my 96 year-old mother out most days and access in to the car is brilliant.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Think it's amazingly practical and surprised how well it performs.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Yes. It fulfils all my current needs and is very economical. Averaging about 50 mpg.

What are you likely to buy next?

Not thought yet but, unless needs change greatly, it could be another Berlingo. I'd go for the more powerful model with higher spec than my current base model.

Didn't buy from a dealer

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£6,995

July 2012

Did you get a good deal and why?

Yes. Low mileage and as new condition although 3 years old. Gave me the deal I offered!

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Need for more luggage space and room for wheelchair and dog in boot.

What was the dealer like?

No pressure. Courteous and helpful. Understood my needs.

What's it like to drive?

Light controls and responsive. Great visibility. Holds the road well. Not a boy racer but goes fast enough for our restricted roads.

Long wheelbase means biggish turning circle but excellent mirrors and lots of glass make visibity good. No hidden areas.

Have you had any problems with the car?

No.

What's most practical about your car?

Big capacity. Versatility. Easy to drive and comfortable. Huge boot.

Sliding rear doors.
