What should I look for in a used Citroen Berlingo?
Some drivers find the driving position uncomfortable, with the seats overly soft and failing to give sufficient leg support. The position of the steering wheel might also feel awkward - so make sure you take a thorough test drive before buying.
The car's electrics cause roughly a third of faults, with everything from the dashboard to foglights failing. In some cases, the engine can also stop, and garages struggle to find the cause.
The roof-mounted aerial can allow water to leak into the cabin, while the passenger door seal has been known to let water into the footwell. Check for damp patches and a musty smell.
Plastic wheelarch linings can work loose after driving through deep puddles. Eventually it starts to rub against the tyre and will then to be removed and replaced. Owners have also complained of cabin trim falling off or breaking.
