Just remember you can only fit the front, unless you want to modify the bushing on the rear shocks, but even then I say it's a bad idea as they are easy to push with 1 finger compared to the OEM which are stiffer.

C4 Picasso are the one's to go for the only thing is the rear dampers are to long so you will need to find some shorter one's or get them made up there is a member on here who as them on his black van look through the thread's on member's Berlingo's i think it's there :thumbsup:

Just run the stock rear dampers, mine is 'heavily' lowered and still uses the stock rear dampers without issue. The ones that come with the 306/Xsara coilies won't fit due to different mountings, but the fronts are fine to use.

Thanks feuxlingo but how do I run rear dampers ?

Are you looking to replace the torsion bars with some coil springs ? The rear dampers are only there to take the bounce out of the torsion bars which act as springs. If you want to mount coil overs to replace the present system you will need to strengthen the mounts to be load bearing which will be complicated.

The eBay link posted ^ are they suitable also for a 2006 1.9D? Cheers
