For Pretty much the whole point of the Berlingo is how much space you get for how little money - and this is the cheapest version. You'll struggle to get more room for less money anywhere.

Against VT-trimmed cars are quite sparsely equipped, so we'd advise going for something better equipped. Plus, this engine can struggle with heavy loads.

3 out of 5 stars

The low price alone makes this an attractive proposition, but we'd recommend buying something a little more expensive, with better equipment and a stronger engine.

Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

It’s important to decide how you plan to use your Citroen Berlingo Multispace before you decide which engine will be best for you. The petrol engine has enough oomph for it to keep up with family hatchbacks, but it's worth going for something a little stronger (ie diesel) if you plan on regularly carrying full loads.

Before you buy any Citroen – and the Berlingo is no exception – check websites and phone dealers to check the latest offers. The company’s own website is a good place to start, with an ‘Offers’ section that you can click through to from each car’s ‘homepage’.

Also, given that the basic specification is pretty sparse and you may well be buying some options, look closely at the various 'packs', which bundle together some useful options at tempting prices.
