Hi Everyone... so glad to have found this forum,
 Am looking at the Berlingo for camping and using day to day... would love your expertise and looking forward to exploring the site, 
wondering which would be the best Berlingo for day to day and then camping on the weekend... 
Been looking at the 2015's however there are so many models not sure which to choose, MPG  and reliability is important to me. 
Also need good steering as have to go down tiny lanes!  (Am driving a Toyota Yaris Verso at the moment and love the tight steering on them.) 

So much to learn however the anticipation and excitement of a new to me Berlingo is wonderful

Welcome, yes I remember those lanes!
Take a surf through the camping section, there are some discussions about vans vs cars. So far as the steering is concerned, anything like the B9 or K9 later than the M59 so, after about 2010 will handle a lot more like a car. Fuel economy, I'm not sure which is best.

Thank you for responding - how do I find out what B9 and K9 and M59 are!! yes a real newbie! have been looking at 1.6 BlueHDi (100bhp) XTR 5d ETG6 2015/65.

Yeah that's a B9 you've found, great handling in my opinion. Very sure footed, light and direct. Little to no body roll from my experience. Very light, quick steering from the electro-hydraulic power system.
