No love for mine anymore. First car/van iv not liked, iv had it over a year but iv decided it has more features I hate than like.
Like its ok in corners as long as not pushed to much, tends to drift even with good tires, ford transit corners only slightly worse.
Nippy in town, poor enough above 100 kph.
Ridiculously undergeared At speed.
Brakes are poor enough. Brake pedal travel is the wrong direction, it's not at 45 so a foot pressing is right, it's more in line with the floor so to brake hard you have to push forward buts its hard to control then.
My clutch pedal pivot keeps braking, and the pedal is much more forward than the others.
Too close together so you can't wear work boots.
s**t uncomfortable seats. And doesn't go back enough for a 6 foot person to be in the right position.
Needs a side door and abs.
Door locks are made of cheese.
Relays for the back wipers are next to the driver so its constant tick tick.
Random noises from the suspension, which is too soft.
No proper mountings for a hitch, yes there's kits but they just mount to everywhere.
Good points,
Decent mpg if drove easy
Great handbrake.
And yes I know you can probably get a more powerful berlingo but the most common 07 1.6 hdi is what I got. Yes the newer one is probably better.
And a side door and abs was probably a option nobody went for
