rpm with auto box at 70mph

[kamiltar]

Hello,
I am looking to buy late Berlingo and I am trying to find out what rpm you have when you doing 70mph with automatic 6 speed gearbox? Please correct me if I am wrong but I couldn't find that info anywere on the forum.
Thank you
Kamil

Sorry, I can't help you. I've only had mine a year and haven't had it above 65mph yet.  And still not tried the gear paddles either.

Maybe the comparison with the classic Morris Minor Traveller is appropriate, for me anyway...

PS. Someone asked me offline what my username is all about.  It's just the letters on the gear-change dial:   R-N-A-M  + MAN

I will check for you on Monday on my way to work, as I do a short motorway stint.

^^^ 70mph = 2500rpm exact.

[jayjay2cv]

Yes, mine is the same as Gollycrush - 2500rpm.

[fishynuts]

mines 70mph = 2750rpm and its a manual box

[kamiltar]

Yes, mine is the same as Gollycrush - 2500rpm.

Thank you for your answer guys.
I am going to see the car tomorrow.
Wish me luck please

Yeh, 2500rpm at 70mph, and feels unfussed and quiet at that speed. I know some people are not wholly happy with the auto box but I think it's great, and versatile due to being to override it using the paddles. Good to have an auto and only £30 per year road tax. Go for it, I can recommend it anyway. Rob
