- BUY, LEASE OR FINANCE A CITROEN BERLINGO FROM OSV: bit.ly/39FnmTU
Citroen's Berlingo People Carrier has come a long way. We check out the third generation version and wonders if families really need to pay more for pricier mid-sized MPVs.
Try and picture a van-based compact people carrier. Bet you weren't imagining anything quite as nice as this. The MK3 model version of Citroen's much more civilised third generation Berlingo people carrier has been further distanced from its predecessors' basic commercial roots. With smarter styling, more equipment and efficient PureTech petrol and BlueHDi diesel engines, this value-for-money five or seven-seater is now a vehicle that demands to be taken very seriously indeed. If you're after a budget family carry-all, it's well worth a look.

Best car review channel by far. Hosts have great presentation skills and do their homework prior to making a video. Two thumbs up.
Thanks for the feedback Proteini 👍 great to see comments like this
Sorry to be so off topic but does someone know a tool to log back into an Instagram account?
I somehow forgot my account password. I would love any tips you can give me.
@Rayan Garrett instablaster ;)
At school some teachers don't like to give 10/10 but you certainly deserve it. With you, a single video is enough to have a detailed and very pleasant review of the car. A big thanks.
We're happy to help. Many thanks for watching, Joel 😄
I can't help but be in awe of his perfect "presentation while calmly driving" skills.😂
We don't mean to blow our own trumpet, but we do it rather well! Thanks for watching, Lynne 👍
A proper review! Very helpful in helping me decide to buy a Berlingo XL Flair for use as a daily car but also a camper / tourer..One day, companies like Citroen will wake up to a sizeable market segment that wants their vehicle to be a camper, and offer options like a preinstalled leisure battery, extra insulation and a false floor and side panels, ready to be screwed into for custom designed DIY campers.
I'm suprised no one seems to have made a tailgate tent
We just went and test drove this model, and will be having it for a 48 test run at the end of the month... My wife just loved it..!! As did the kids!
Thanks to your review and answers to my questions, i bought one of these, superb car, loads of leg and headroom for a tall driver like me and still leg room for rear passengers. Smooth ride and quiet. Love it
Great to hear we could help Michael 👍 enjoy the Berlingo
I'm 6 feet tall and I like my seat position quite high and I'm concerned that the central storage running along the centre of the car and the top side forward storage might prove intrusive and potentially be a head strike hazard in any incident or in the latter case also reduce forward vision. How have you found it?
@@greenbaron6822 Hello, well, i was amazed, i'm 6'3" and i like to sit up high so i have the seat to it's maximum and there is still plenty of head room. A very comfy ride for us tall, long legged fellas. I can thoroughly recommend it.
@@michaelstewart8535 Thanks for that. I'm seriously considering buying one of these. I want to look at the Peugeot version and the Ford Tourneo Connect as well though. Thanks again 👍
Absolutely beautiful! I wish Citroën sold cars here in North America.

I'm four minutes into the review and I'm thinking, wow! Great car and an equally if not more so excellent reviewer. By a country mile the best review of this vehicle currently available, most helpful. Thanks.

Your review has helped enormously in making a descision on buying this car. Far better than the useless Citroen garage dealer who gave us next to no information. Thankyou
Thanks Wynne 👍 fantastic to see comments like this
Thank you for this very thorough and informative video, the presenter is a true professional according to the way he brings up all the countless details.
One of the most versatile cars money can buy. I love the Berlingo even if it is a van with windows.
Its a practical vehicle that is a great choice for many drivers 👍
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply I agree. A relative had a first generation Berlingo and it was absolutely excellent.

Anybody know what roof rack fits the standard size I can't figure out what fits it any help would be much appreciated?? ???
I have my Berlingo for 15 years now...still love it...but due an upgrade, but only because of the new emission charges...Thanks Major of London(twat)
Perhaps someone said this already: The small indentation for "tiny bottles of plastic" could be where the Grip Control wheel goes, when specified.
What a great review...Thank you,I have had my Berlingo Desire for 15yrs,never had one problem with it..Taken god care of it service wise,just other cars bumping into it...Now have to sell it because I live in London and the coming of the LEZ charge...I really want to keep it,but cant,so now looking at this beauty

Excellent review - thanks. Just upgraded from the 2016 model which I loved - improvements are amazing!
Great to hear Dave 👍 hope the Berlingo keeps Berlin"going" strong for years to come
As a family of 4 I'm seriously considering buying one. Loads of space for bikes camping etc without the SUV price tag.

Thanks, it's hard to beat the Berlingo on practicality and space 👍
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply I have subscribed to your channel and look forward to viewing more of your reviews, cheers.

We're glad you found this review helpful. Many thanks for watching 👍
Excellent review as always probably the best reviews on u tube!
Thanks for the positive feedback Seve 👍
Your reviews are very detailed, like the german "Ausfahrt TV", Well done
Thanks for the feedback 👍 great to be compared to such a good channel
I can't believe I just sat through a 56 minute car review!
Thank you, Stan 👍 Would be great to get some feedback. Are you looking to buy a Berlingo?
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply Sorry if my comment appeared rude. It was very detailed indeed and well presented, just very long! I am interested in it because I want to carry two adult bicycles inside (for security), vertically (so they don't get damaged) and intact. Thanks to your details of the interior dimensions, I now know that this fits the bill.
@@standandeliver8376No worries, Stan, we appreciate all feedback and are glad we could help you 👍 these vehicles are great for cyclists 👍
Very concise review, no prejudice.
Excellent review,as are all yours! Very comprehensive also.Covers everything you need to know.You my second favourite car review video site (Autogefuel is currently 1st)!
Thanks Mark, great to hear. hopefully we can take top spot someday 👍
Makes me remember a bit the old Citroen H van :)
This video is made with great skill, at least if the audience has engineers. 5/5 points for your presentation quality!
Can confirm, am an Engineer and watched the entire thing.
I had an early first generation 2L HDi and have just completed 70,000 miles in my second generation 2012 XTR (it's done >90k miles in total). These are still the best cars I have ever owned. The only thing I think is a backward step is that the rear seats no longer lift out, which reduces load capacity. I will probably replace my second generation one in a few years - either with a low mileage gen 2 or a used gen 3. Once you get used to them you wonder how you ever got by with the limitations of a normal car...
Thanks for the comment John 👍 great to hear from an owner. We loved the practicality of the Berlingo!
"...backward step is that the rear seats no longer lift out..."
It should be well understood that "modern" cars as a general rule of thumb DO NOT have removable/lifting/rotating seats. Due to "safety" implementations!
I had 1998 Mercedes A class. Front passenger seat could be removed with 1 lever! Next generation bolted in place!
Citroen Xsara Picasso battery easily accessible under the driver seat. Seat lifted by 2 levers, very easy system! Later models bolted in place! Battery access became a nightmare...
All rear seats were removable! Later Picasso incarnation, bolted and foldable... no longer removable!
Renault Espace once had rotating seats, later generations lost it.
Earlier vans and van based cars had handle on A pillar to facilitate user ingress. Another detail that you won't find nowadays. But still present on heavy vehicles. That don't have to comply with the same EuroNcap tests! ;-)
@@crpth1 Progress huh! Since posting my comment a year ago Blingy has now done almost 120,000 miles and still not missed a beat. Clutch is getting tired but I've decided I am going to accept spending money on maintenance and will be keeping it until the UK bans diesels or it it rusts away. It's still the best car I have ever had.
fantastic review!!
Thank you for the feedback rent a fun 👍👍👍
great video - everything you need to know in one place
Thanks RG 👍
Thank you for this informative, well presented review with it's excellent production quality. I have been considering a new Berlingo and your video provides the next best thing to my personally inspecting one.
I have learned more about the vehicle than when I viewed Citroën's website and phoned my local dealer.
That's what were here for 👍 If you want more information on the the car or its alternatives feel free to contact us to help you find your perfect car👍 www.osv.ltd.uk/contact-us/

Flippin' 'eck, this guy must have a computer for a brain. How does he manage to store and retrieve so much information so quickly and accurately?
Best car review I've ever seen (I was completely unaware of this channel until recently) especially when compared to so many of the "fluff" reviews elsewhere.
Thanks very much, David. If you haven't done so already, make sure you subscribe for plenty more car reviews!
I've had 2 berlingos the last one being the simple 1.9 non turbo. It did 300k miles with only a new clutch and a new alternator. Can't imagine the new ones will come close to that. Great vid and a great car
great to hear back from a long term owner 👍 time will tell
whats difference between rifter and berlingo ?which is better and why?
Great video. Well done!
Thanks Terry, glad you enjoyed it 👍
I'm convinced!

Good in depth review, that add blue diesel looks interesting. Had a fiat doblo some years ago, the new berlingo looks like a very good replacement, without loosing the charm and practicality of the previous model.
Thanks for the feedback John 👍 We love the practicality of the bingo
This guys is a really good presenter.
My complements on a very thorough and comprehensive review. You guys have really done your homework well.
Thanks for the feedback Miles 👍 we do spend a lot of time on our homework 😊
Very tempted by this car. I was thinking of getting something small now that the family are grown but I still find the space in my Citroen Xzara Picasso great for lugging stuff around. Haven't needed to hire a van or a skip in over a decade. And the fuel economy is pretty good on this Berlingo I believe.
Its a very practical car. If you are in the market for a new vehicle feel free to speak with one of our vehicle specialists for more information or alternatives >> www.osv.ltd.uk/contact-us/
A most accurate review, i have seen so far...Nice car :) Berlingo owner 2008..
Thanks Thor, great to hear feedback like this 👍
Hi I have a 09 berlingo just hope the new one is as good as the old one I've had it with 10000 miles now as 80000 and the only thing that's failed is a spring so well happy with it so will get the lwb one next I have the 1.6 hdi and get 45 mpg I like the slow car when I've had fast cars I tend to push it just hope they make a good basic one and not try and make it something it's not
@@chilman6461 My Parents have a 16 year old berlingo, and i've grown up with it since i was born, over 200000 miles and the Rear axle on the left side is was broken, somehow fixed itself though. it's a facelifted Berlingo "first".
I found this review fascinating, not only for the vehicle, but for the cultural perspective as well. Here in Canada, we don't have access to Citroens or Peugeots. If you're a typical van person, you'd end up with a Dodge Grand Caravan, Chrysler Pacifica, Toyota Sienna, or a Kia Sedona. I'm an owner of a 2017 Dodge Grand Caravan Crew Plus, old technology in some respects, but comfortable. If you want to see the difference in the design mindset, have a look at the TH-cam reviews of for example the Grand Caravan Crew Plus or the GT. Thanks for an enjoyable and informative European van review.
Thanks, Jon 👍 great to hear some feedback from Canada. We live in a different world of cars over here
I am looking for 7 seat, I think I found my car , thank you for the video ❤️❤️

The Citroen Berlingo is a extremely versatile vehicle, I'm still using my much loved 2001 version with 1.4 petrol engine and no complicated modern computer. I'm not planning to buy a new one, that losses money the second you drive it away from the garage.
Hi, i have a 2007 1.6 petrol and is the best car I have ever owned.

What a great review, detailed and balanced.
Thanks for the feedback bikeguy 👍 great to see comments like this
Well... presented
(28:25)... I own an XL XTR 7 seater version and the middle seats don't slide nor recline. They just fold.
The 130hp petrol still hasn’t been released unfortunately
Do the seats not fold totally flat? Are they removable then? That's what. Like the most about my B9 is the totally flat rear when the seats are folded or removed.
Excellent review. Full of good information. I've been looking for a review of the Ford Tourneo Connect, but can't find one. Have you done one? Thanks.
Hi Green Baron! We haven't reviewed the Tourneo Connect yet but we did review the Transit Connect last year: th-cam.com/video/OT4-4yUInh0/w-d-xo.html. Hope this will help you decide if a Ford MPV will suit you best 👍
What a blessing this solid car review compared to those car clowns from top gear
Thanks for the feedback John, great to see comments like this
Top Gear is a prog about fast cars, designed for the profitable younger market, more gullible and with a greater spend ability for toys, flash, and shiny stuff combined with a desperate desire to be noticed, but in the end we all have to grow up, buy a house and have to move stuff, this is for those "once youngsters". Different market, different audience, as you say a good solid review. The awkward rear door I haven't seen mentioned before, on a commercial version this would be totally impractical, so why does the poor punter get the rubbish version ? Again good review.
John Krols great review Top Gear is all about millionaires racing around in cars that most of us are not ever going to drive.or stupid stunts in far away places.Pointless.Their show off antics have nothing to do with Motoring
I guess most don't grasp the concept, that Top Gear is/was an entertainment show. Full stop, period...
It happen to have "cars" as a topic or subject. This on the other hand is a (good) car presentation and information show. In spite the subject in question being the same. The comparison stop right there. Apples and oranges, they're both fruits but... Stop there. LOL 😂
Brilliant.
Much like. Mnogo sviđa.
Good review, been waiting for a proper one since they changed the look. But it could have started at 6:00 mins in and you still wouldn’t have missed anything.
Nice
Rhat hole next to gear leaver is from gripcontrol or lack of it
Their vans look so good making their cars look bad.
I have the standard size m range of the new Berlingo does anyone know what type of roof rack fits it please I have the feel version not the flare
Watching this about to buy my 3rd Berlingo, I fish ,I have dogs and I garden ! It does it all . Friends buying a Rifter why ?
Super
@OSV, I think you will find that Citroen did not invent the LSV type Vehicles because In the UK they date back to the Hillman Minx/Humber 2 door Panel Van/Wagon Variants by the Rootes Group back in the late 1950's early 1960's Also Vauxhall Viva also Made one as did Ford with the Anglia and then the Escort.
I dismissed these before and got something else ?? BUT this Is a Very Good review and also Clear with speech, So much so, I`m going to get one of these x 7 seaters. >> Thank You !! >> Got to say though, I like the overhead Back door, for what I do , and It`ll be great for going fishing ??
Thanks for the feedback, its a very practical car for so many people 👍
Nice looking tool, it smacks of looking like the new Vauxhall in which case I would prefer that.
Vauxhall is now owned by Citroen/Peugeot so it's just Vauxhalls take on the same basic model.
Good review, the first gen has been in our family for years (just hit 200.000km) and my father of course is looking at the new version. Still, I am quite amused about the French sense of beauty as I think the XTR version looks a little silly with the garish orange detailing and the odd top roof thingy.
Whereas I love its individuality
A refreshingly honest, unbiased review of an improved version of an excellent existing model. If I had new car money, I'd be off to do a deal at my local Citroen dealer. Why anyone tries to kid themselves that the SUV option is an intelligent move beggars belief. Ok a more car based MPV might look a bit sassier on the driveway, but if that justifies spending £3k more, well again, more fool them as does so! I feel it is a shame that a really basic version cannot be had in the UK, likewise, the non availability of the triple rear seat is Citroen shooting themselves in the foot imho. Frankly, to get something as useful as the triple rear seat shouldn't have to include a lot of the electronics, and other unnecessary trim bits of the higher spec car. Come on Citroen, do the decent thing! I also have an issue with so many manufacturers insisting that white (the colour of least imagination) is the only no extra cost colour. Not everyone want's to emulate the poor sap, base model BMW and Audi drivers who could have so much more with a different grille badge!
Sadly, unless my lottery numbers come up tonight, I'll have to carry on with my rather secondhand C4 Picasso......but hey, that's not a major problem.
Thanks for the feedback 👍 some great points here. good luck with the lottery numbers 😂
Agree with your comments.I need this car for my wife's motability problems.Carrying a motability scooter plus two grandchildren on a regular basis.This is a fantastic car underrated in my opinion.In Britain image is inportant to many people which doesn't mean a thing really.I have driven many fast cars testing cars for engine test and oil consumption.Anything over 80mph in the UK and three points awaits on your licence.
Regarding the opening rear window - is Citroen really not offering it as an option for lower spec tiers? Here in Slovakia we specced out our Berlingo with middle tier and optional opening rear window. I've also seen it as an option in both Rifter and Combo price lists here. So I wonder what's going on on the other side of the channel ...
Hi mikosoft, thanks for the comment 👍 In the UK its an optional extra too, would be nice to see this as standard on the high spec models.
Have run an 06 incarnation 1 (1.6Hdi) for nearly 13 years and 150000 miles and the appeal was its van like nature which has never been a problem. It carted filthy kids, mountain bikes and stuff around flawlessly and only ever had (other than regular services) a cambelt, waterpump, 1 injector seal and a battery and starter motor.
The Mk2 version was mildly focus group sanitised but they lowered it too much in the ground clearance department for some of the places I go.
With the Mk3 version they seem to have lost the plot as it has drifted so far from its roots, got middle aged spread, has far too much trim in the load area and too many gadgets.
Result, too bulky, too heavy and too pricey.
I'm loathed to replace it but it has had it's day and unfortunately this new one will not be taking it's place.
P.S. Good review, watched it all and it proved to me that the new version basically doesn't do anything for me....
Thanks for the comment Graeme Pilkington, great to hear from an owner (especially on for 13 years). That's what our reviews are here for, if you want to speak to one of our vehicle experts about alternatives to the incarnation feel free to give them a call www.osv.ltd.uk/contact-us/
That is the problem. We've had French van cars now for what seems like ever. Best things ever. But each iteration gets bigger and more expensive. I wish the dacia dokker was in the UK. It starts at 10k EUR.
@@Benjamin.Jamin. I thought the same, would have quite readily considered the Dokker but as the kids have grown up the bikes can now go on a rack and I'm awaiting the delivery of a 2019 Suzuki Jimny within the next 2 weeks. Yeah its smaller but the Berlingo has had its back seat permanently folded down for the last 4 years but it is arguably 5K cheaper which offsets the extra thirst of the 1.5 petrol. Has no turbo, no dpf, 4WD, loads of ground clearance, different to drive, loads of character and is square with a big door at the back.
I predict that this incarnation will not sell as well as the first or second and residual values will be percentage wise worse.
Good news in 3/4 years for ex PCH/PCP bargains.
I have the mk2 and feel it was a good mix did loose some of the charm of the mk1 I won't my car to be van like with no mod cons I won't big rubber bumpers and a rubber strip that runs down the side I if I wonted all the mod cons I would have got a pacaso and they was good value for money I won't to spend my money on enjoying family life it's a car that if I take the kids out and they scratch it I would just shake my head and get on with life we won't a simple car

Since you have done this video, the 1.2 petrols are proving to be u reliable with the oil in belts causing problems. The belts are degrading and blocking parts of the engine. Such a shame my mk1 1.6 petrol remains superb and 17 yrs old. Totally reliable, comfy, economical, smooth and quiet. I was hoping o get one of these but with govt approach to diesel and petrol engines not doing very well seems a non starter. If I could buy a brand new mk1 petrol, i definitely would.

@@OsvUkVehicleSupply Many thanks, i'm booking a test drive today. Your help much appreciated.
is the centre console storage box still available on this model . the box between front seats .
2 yrs on .. I’ve just bought the storage box. It’s now discontinued , but found one for sale in Europe, it’s such a handy item!
We had two Mk 1 and now have a Mk2. with all they are practical vehicles just like a proper estate car. You carry five people then you need to be able to carry the baggage of five people. One big advantage of the Berlingo/Partner/Rifter is the floor height of the luggage space - so many of the modern wedge-shaped vehicles require one to hire a fork-lift truck to load and unload the baggage.
Thanks for the feedback Alejandra y Alan Bowma. great to hear from an owner 👍
The auto gearbox is a duel clutch type and not a traditional torque converter. I bought the commercial version and was disappointed by this.
Aleluja! And now; one big glas of water for the presentator! please!
cost effectiveness at the garage and service !!!???
Can the Berlingo (or any of its immediate competitors) truly fit 3 child car seats in row 2?
Definitely, YES! In fact vehicles of this category are among the broadest "normal" vehicles you can find! ;-)
I was a bit disappointed after watching this video to find that the more powerful petrol engine, with auto gearbox, isn't available! Do you have any inside news on when it will be available?
The problem with these cars is that the customer will choose between Citroen, Peugeot and Opel/Vauxhall based on look. Actually you can see the front side fender is the same on all cars, even though there are different lights and grilles on the front.
It's not a surprise the fact they're all made on the same factory!! ;-)
European units come either from PSA factory in Mangualde, Portugal. Or PSA in Vigo, Spain.
Peugeot Rifter, Citroen Berlingo and Opel/Vauxhall Combo, exactly like the other triplet examples... Peugeot 107, Citroen C1, Toyota Aygo.
Or the older VW Sharan, Seat Alhambra, Ford Galaxy.
Or the modern Toyota ProAce, Peugeot Expert and Citroen Dispatch! And the list of examples continue. ;-)
more information on noise and comfort on a long journey, please
PSA needs to offer this as an EV; there seems to be enough space under the floor for a battery pack. Perhaps they could use a similar motor and battery pack as in the eCorsa (100 kW, 50 kWh, 205 mile range).
If your after 7 seats I’d just go for the 5008 Peugeot ,no brainier!!
What's a barlingo
Tiny cubby is for grip control
The mistake at 08:27 needs correction.
The Eat 6 gearbox was not in the previous versions of the Berlingo or Partner.
The ETG6 was the previous robotised manual, as were the EGC6 AND EGS6.
The EAT6 and EAT8 are both new, high quality torque converter gearboxes, without the reliability problems associated with the previous generation and the VW DSG boxes.
