Anybody bought a new Berlingo lately?

Are there any changes/improvements on previous models that you`re aware of?

Cant say for car but for van ('12 plate from a '10 plate) the rear suspension is rattle free and doesnt skitter the car sideways on loose and potholed surfaces.
The front end is also better ,feeling more secure and planted (previously felt like the tyres had 1000 psi in them and was about to understeer)

The engine induction sound (1.6-75) is different, as is the mapping.

I had the lowest spec on the '10 and the Enterprise spec with this one so I cant tell if all of the extra gadgetry is due to the upgrade but there's a lot more info output to the driver from the two displays.

The air vent louvres are stiffer and now hold their position
The plastic trim is a darker grey.

The back door latches have been changed
It is on my to do list.
But not right at the top

As of about March this year the were minor modifications to the XTR, this included day running lights, 115bhp against the old 110 and nicer wheel trims if you have traction control fitted as an extra.

New version doesn't have the storage nets above rear doors and I am sure that the internal ski racks are now an optional chargeable extra.
