6th Gear + 10bhp at last.

[theraphosa]

I see that Citroen are adding an extra gear and a useful 10bhp to the Berlingo, well overdue, does anyone know when it will be available in the UK.

I think it's 2018 they need the extra 10 BHP to pull the weigh of the new 6th gear is the gear rating any higher though

It was introduced at the Geneva Motor show, so I would think it will around mid summer here. No sign of it at Citroens Uk Site yet.

I hope so, I think it's the best possible upgrade, they're definitely under geared, especially for the motorway, and that extra 10 bhp will improve the fuel economy.

[Gollycrush]

Mine too.

HaHa, you're not supposed to count reverse,

The olde-worlde "stick-wagglers" are catching up with us  

Just prove's we can think press the clutch and change gear as well as driving what's your left hand for now picking your nose  and what your left leg for to stop you falling over when you get out the car 

[Jed Clampit]

Yes and yes!

I assume that after stomping on the clutch and waggling that stick all day you come home and wash your clothes in the back yard using a bucket and mangle.  Then watch your black and white TV.  Who needs progress.

The other "big deal" about the new one is that it's £30/year road tax.  Like the auto already is.

LOL Iv'e got a twin tub now with a electric mangle  what's wrong with a black and white TV it's a cheaper licence ask Ron i bet you had a calculator when you were at school is that progress we had to use are finger's and toe's whoop's i mean head same about changing gear

I wonder if they have fixed the famous rattle with the facelift?
