new citroen berlingo Q&A Review
What is your reason for buying the type of car you are currently using?
Pictured below is an example of my present car, which is a Citroen Berlingo Multispace with a 1.6 litre diesel engine. (Incidentally my car has exactly the same colour as the car in this picture.) I have owned mine since purchasing it new in April 2010, and so now it is eleven and a half years old and has done 120,000 miles. I purchased my very first car in 1976, which was a nearly new Citroen 2CV, which attracted me not only because it was somewhat quirky but also because of its low fuel consumption and cheap insurance premium, at a time when I had only graduated from university the previous year, and was not earning a lot of money. I went on to own three more 2CVs one after the other before “trading up” (to coin a phase) to a new Citroen Visa in 1985, which had a engine capacity of 652 cc as opposed to the 2CVs 602 cc ! I have owned no other make of car ever since, and probably the main reason for this was that when it was time to part exchange my car and buy a new replacement, I was always given a much better price for my old car by a Citroen garage than any other garage, which I suppose is only to be expected. Of all the Citroens I have owned, I have especially find memories of two AX GTs I owned, one after the other, in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Those cars with their 1360 cc engines had a terrific performance, and though I hate to admit this, early one Saturday morning when I was driving to Blackpool for the weekend, I reached a speed of 110 mph on the M61 motorway in Lancashire when there was very little traffic. I hasten to add that this was the fastest I have ever driven in my life. I decided to buy the present car, because the previous car, a Citroen C3 saloon, was not really big enough for our family now, and I had owned it for five years from new. The Citroen Berlingo Multispace seemed an ideal car for a growing family, with plenty of space, and ideal for long journeys from our home in Nottingham to such holiday destinations as Northumberland (north east England) and Devon and Cornwall (south west England). Another thing that attracted to me to this car was that it had a diesel engine, and indeed it was the first diesel powered car I ever owned. I wanted to try a diesel powered car because some of my work colleagues who already owned diesel cars spoke very highly of them, and because in those days diesel engines were being touted as a better alternative to petrol engines because their carbon emissions were lower. (It is only in more recent years that diesel engines have gone out of favour because they emit more carciogenic fumes than petrol engines, and so if not so damaging to the environment are more damaging to personal health.) Another particular reason for my wanting to switch to a diesel car at this time was that my previous car had not been too reliable latterly, with recurring ignition problems, which my garage seemed unable to diagnose properly and fully repair. At least I would not experience the same problems again if I switched from a petrol engine to a diesel engine. When I first drove the Berlingo Multispace, I liked the high driving position and the way the diesel engine powered the car up hills without the need to change gear as frequently as I needed to in my previous car. The car was also much more comfortable and relaxing to drive, and journeys which had seemed like long journeys in my old car to destinations such as Norfolk seemed like only 30 mile journeys now. Above all it has proved to be the most reliable car I have ever owned, and my servicing and maintenance costs have been lower for this car than most of my other cars, apart from having to replace the clutch a few years ago. For these reasons I have kept the car for ten and a half years, which is more than twice as long as the time I kept any of my previous cars. I can envisage myself keeping it for a few more years yet, assuming that nothing goes seriously wrong with it, in which case I shall switch to an electric car. At the present time, when we have a shortage fuel at the pumps at garages here in the U.K. having a diesel powered car may have its advantages, because when I went to refuel late last week at a local filling station only a short distance from my home, all but one of the petrol pumps were not in use and it seemed that they were rapidly running out of petrol, whereas all of the diesel pumps were still in operation. Reading local news items about which filling stations still have fuel, I notice that it does seem more easy to always obtain diesel than petrol in Nottingham at the present time.
Is a Citroen Berlingo a good car?
I drive my Berlingo with great pleasure, 200.000 km by now, without a problem. Of course it is not a race car, but we can only go 70 km/h on regular roads, so who cares. Mine is 10 years old, so the styling is out. The new Berlingo looks gorgeous, I love it. Keep one thing in mind, Citroën is a European car maker and to me they make beautiful cars. American car are so ugly, to my taste. Berlingo style mini vans are also made by VW, Fiat, Renault, Opel, Dacia. So the choice is yours.
Have you ever exchanged a car for a car that was better than the one that you bought?
This is ‘Wendy’! This is really a question for people who are not so interested in cars. I was recently tempted to buy a car, that on reflection, is probably worse than the car I own at the present moment. What possessed me? Worry about small problems - a scratch on the windscreen Boredom - wanting a change An opportunity to buy a bargain Getting caught up and excited by the buying process Madness! This is the car that I nearly bought. For most people it would be an ugly duckling. Let’s call her ‘Wendy’. Americans will probably not recognise the make. The review said that this car was the real successor to the 2CV, the sort of car you can drive across a ploughed field in a top hat with a crate of eggs. I had a look at one, and I thought that it had an enormous space in the back once the seats were folded.

Why does Germany seem to have advantages over France in Germany-France competition?
In my opinion, mainly because of the decentralization. In France, everything is centralized and big companies are considered to be a GoodThing and helped by the politics. This results in lack of the SMIs and destroys work places. Germany is decentralized and full of Mittelstand" companies. Not all of these are really SMEs (on the contrary, some “Mittelstand” companies are quite large, see Wikipedia article on ,Mittelstand,) , but it's easier to run an SME in Germany. On top of this, Germans appreciate the idea of improving existing products, whereas French consider such work unworthy. This is my personal observation, I may be mistaken, but I watched the TGV appear as a brilliant idea and then slowly gets caught up by german ICE. I watched the French invent new type of car with Citroen Berlingo and this type of cars slowly gets copied and improved by Germans. Not to mention the difference between the beautiful tools that used to be delivered by (now defunct) french “Mandrake” - later “Mandriva” tools and the boring ones in SuSe Linux. The problem: Mandrake tools were essentially rewritten for every new release and sometimes old features would be broken, whereas the german one weren’t and thus they gradually got better. In the last 40 years, Germans fared really well with continuous improvements. French may be better positioned for disruptive changes in terms of attitude towards “new and sexy stuff”, but their stiff System of "national champions" and the highly pyramidal management culture prevents them from trying out really risky new stuff.
Why are so many giant car makers in Europe not sold in the US?
I echo your sentiment as well. My wife misses the little Citroen Berlingo we had, and there's really nothing like that in the States. Well, until recently came the Ford TransitConnect, though it's not quite the same. And I do wish VW will bring models like the Polo, Caddy and the Scirocco. And we pined for Ford to bring the Focus ST & RS over, and it never happened. There's a combination of reasons why European makers have not entered or returned to the US. I can think of a few: Capital, Entering the US Market is a huge investment. When you launch a car or a brand in the States, it's gotta be nationwide. People inevitably move around. So Citroen, for example, can't just sell the C4 in New York and only New York. With a car market the size of the US, committing is a huge monetary gamble. Differences in Crash test standards, Euro NCAP and the NHTSA have slightly different safety standards. The differences are minor, but the current US's requirement for airbags, for example, have driven smaller manufacturers away. While I imagine most, if not all, of the Citroen, Renault or Peugeot range exceed the standards on both shores, but who knows what lies ahead. The US may alter its bumper laws 5 years from now, the same way that effectively killed the British roadsters in the 70s, and these guys are screwed. Focus on small engines, This is mostly due to consumer taxation and gasoline prices. For the general populous, European manufacturers focus on making the most practical car possible with the smallest engine displacement. In the UK, the annual road tax on a car can be double for a 1800cc over a 1200cc version of the same car. I think the current magic number is 1549cc. Brand Image, America's reputation of Peugeot, Alfa and Fiat isn't exactly great. Nick has already touched upon that topic above. Potential jeopardy with current allies, For PSA Peugeot, it is already allied with Toyota for building sub compacts. It also has a joint venture with BMW with the Prince engine featured in the MINI. Fiat already has a stake in Chrysler & the 500 is on its way. And Renault is already a long-time ally with Nissan.
What do you think of Vauxhall cars now that they're no longer part of General Motors?
As at today, mid-2021, no new car models have been introduced that were not introduced or at least designed under GM ownership; meaning that the change in ownership of Vauxhall (which even under the previous ownership) has long been little more than a subsidiary of Opel, has no impact on the vehicles. The only significant change is that because the new owner, the Peugeot group, views Renault as its major competitor, Vauxhall's Renault-based Vivaro vans were discontinued. The Vivaro, which used to be based on the Renault Traffic, is now based on the Peugeot PartnerPartner/Citroën Berlingo. Currently, however, the Vauxhall Movano is still based on the Renault Master.
What new cars are the most pleasurable to drive on long daily commutes?
At the present time I own a Citroen Berlingo Multispace, which is now over ten years old and has done about 107,000 miles. I have always owned Citroens ever since I bought my first one back in 1976 (a Citroen 2CV) and have always owned smaller Citroens since then, part exchanging them ever two years or so. In the late 1980s and early 1990s I drove two Citroien AX GTs, which had 1360 cc engines and a very high performance. The Berlingo Multispace is the largest car I have owned, and it was certainly a pleasure to drive when I was commuting to work (from my home in Nottingham to my workplace in Derby and back, about 15 miles each way) before I retired in 2016. This car is also a pleasure to drive all of the time really, and I like the high driving position and the ample space inside the car. I also like the van like design of the vehicle which is functional and practical, especially the sliding doors for back seat passengers. These are much safer for children to use, or any careless back seat passengers for that matter, who are apt to fling open a conventional car door without always looking outside first. This car was also the first diesel engine car I have owned, and I certainly noticed that compared to my previous petrol engined cars it had much better pulling power on hills; in fact a few miles from Nottingham there is a hill on a road on which we often drive, and this car was the first of my cars which could go all the way up it without the need for me to change gear, which was not the case with any of the previous cars I owned. I have also found that the servicing and maintenance costs of this car are lower than with any of my other cars, without the recurring need to replace spark plugs and points as was the case with my petrol engined cars. The Berlingo Multispace does seem much more rugged and durable than any of them. My Citroen Berlingo Multispace has been on some long runs from here in Nottingham over the years, to London and down to the south coast, including holidays in Devon and Cornwall. It had to do a long day’s work being driven hard one day last April about four months ago, when I drove to Lancaster University and back all in one day (about 135 miles or 216 km each way), and much of it in pouring rain too. It was during the coronavirus lockdown, but we had to go and empty my son’s room at the university at short notice, to avoid incurring extra charges for it. We drove there and back without stopping and just quickly moved things from the room to the car, leaving the room empty and then handing in the key before driving home again. We also returned a few days ago from a week long caravan holiday on the Lincolnshire coast, and again the Citroen Berlingo Multispace proved to be the ideal vehicle not just for commuting but for going on holiday because it can accommodate some luggage as well as well as other items which we buy while we are away on holiday. The car is very relaxing for both drivers and passengers and the journey in one just flies by; indeed only a few weeks after we bought this car in 2010 we went on holiday to Norfolk, and when we arrived at King’s Lynn in that county (80 miles from Nottingham) my wife remarked how quickly the journey had gone, because it felt instead as though we were driving to Lincoln (40 miles from Nottingham). As I have already said, the car is now over ten years old and has done about 107,000 miles but I have no plans to replace it. I suppose that if I ever did need to replace the car, I would buy another Citroen Berlingo Multispace but this time, with diesel engines being phased out, I expect that it would have to be a petrol engined one.
How often do you replace the clutch on a car?
My first car, purchased in 1976, was a Citroen 2CV and I have owned Citroens ever since then. I kept most of my cars for three to five years, but I have owned my present car, which is a Citroen Berlingo Multispace (1.6 litre diesel) for ten years. This is by far the longest period I have ever kept the same car, and it has now done 119,000 miles. You can read more about the car and why purchased it here - ,Michael Burden's answer to What is your reason for buying the type of car you are currently using? As I have not owned any car (apart from my present one) for more than five years, the only time I have ever had to replace a clutch on a car was almost six years ago in December 2015, when I replaced the clutch on my present car. The bill for the clutch replacement is attached above, and as you can see it was not cheap, costing a total of £568.25 (including VAT). You will see that the mileage done by the car at the time is also indicated on the bill, and it was 77,033 miles (or 123,969 kilometres). I had owned the car from when it was new in April 2010, so it was about five and half years old then, and so the average mileage I had been driving was about 14,000 miles per year. I retired from full time employment the following year, and so since the clutch replacement I have driven about 42,000 miles in six years, which is an average of only about 7,000 miles per year.
Have you ever wandered around a parking lot trying to find your car?
I have from time to time seen people, usually older people like myself whose memories are failing, wandering around supermarket car parks trying to find their car, and even heard them muttering to themselves that “it must be in here somewhere”. I would then have a little chuckle to myself about that, but then thought that maybe I should not, because I have been told that forgetting where you have parked your car in the supermarket car park like this can be the first signs of dementia in old age. However I stand need to have a chuckle at those people because I am afraid to admit that when I used to go shopping at a supermarket with a big car park and came out of the supermarket again I would realise only then that I had forgotten where exactly I had parked the car. I did not have to wander round too much, though, because even if I had forgotten where exactly I parked the car I was soon been able to spot it among all of the other parked cars. This is because it is a Citroen Berlingo Multispace (pictured below) and as you may be able to see from the picture it has a high roof line in relation to most other cars, and so its roof would always be clearly visible among a sea of parked cars. For this reason, when I buy a new car in future, it will be another Citroen Berlingo Multispace. While we are still on this subject, some years ago - in the days before I owned my present car - I and thousands of other people in the locality would always visit the Nottinghamshire Agricultural Show held on a weekend in May each year on a former airfield. It was so easy to unthinkingly park a car there and leave it without making a mental note of exactly where it was parked, so that when I returned to the car park I would have great difficulty and spend quite some time looking for it. Indeed on one occasion I gave up and waited for quite a long time until the evening, by which time most people had left the show and there were relatively few cars left in the car park. It was only then that I was soon able to spot my own car.
