    IVE HAD FOUR OF THESE VANS BETWEEN 1996 AND 2000, THEY WERE GREAT AT THE TIME, VERY RELIABLE AND ECOMOMICAL, THINGS HAVE MOVED ON SINCE, REMEMBER THEY WERE ANOTHER VERSION OF THE VW CADDY.
    I DONT THINK THEY HAVE PRODUCED THEM FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS AS SEAT DONT DO ANY COMMERCIAL MOTORS AT ALL.
    THERE IS MORE MODERN VANS ON THE MARKET NOW LIKE THE NEW CADDY, THE CONNECT,THEVAUXHALL COMBO IN THE CAR DERIVED VAN SECTION WHICH PROBABLY OFFER MORE SPACE AND MORE MODERN, BUT THAT SAID, THEY WERE GREAT VANS WHEN WE HAD THEM.

    What do you think of the citron berlingo? Are they a good van and have they any major faults? It’s the 1900 turbo. Do they have good lift or are they quite dead? What kind of pulling power? fasetester 🙂

    I had a Berlingo couple of years ago, my word it shifted, 1.9D. Then one of the new boys took it over when I moved onto a Galant estate. Fantastic handling, the top end is restricted but we got over this by adjusting the accelerator cable. Had a few faults, the keypad for the immobilisor was a bit touch and go after a couple of years, fuel pipes leaked now and again, but in general good old workhorse. Could carry quite a bit of equipment s well, easily fit 2 commercial 6 burner ranges in it and have room for tools etc. Steering was heavy on it though. All in all a good van.

    They do have power assisted steering, but it’s not worth writing home about. I went from a Vauxhall Combi with no power steering to the Berlingo which had a little power assisted steering, to a Renault Kangoo with lighter steering again to a Galant estate which has more assistance again. I guess it seemed heavy to me because I was used to my cars having lighter steering and my subsequent company vehicles having lighter steering. It was still a cracking drive and quite enjoyable. Fantastic handling on the backroads.
