| Contrà´le technique |
| Closely related to (but cheaper than) the Peugeot Partner Combi, Berlingo was the first French van-derived midi-MPV to come to Britain. Early cars were hampered by having only three doors; the majority since 2000 and all since 2002 have five, with wide-opening sliding rear doors. Berlingo is smaller than a Focus hatchback but the tall, light, boxy interior feels cavernous and fits five plus luggage with ease. Some interior touches are a bit cheap 'n' cheerful, but this is an inexpensive car. Options including a huge sunroof and roof lockers allow extra creature comforts. Petrol engines are lively enough but need revs when heavily laden. The old 1.9D gets there without too much fuss but is sluggish, making the modern 2.0 HDi the pick of the bunch for its extra power and 50mpg economy. Despite its van parentage, Berlingo drives well, with confident roadholding compensating for the inevitable body roll. |
