We have a 17 year old Berlingo from new. We went for the 1.6 Petrol engine not knowing that 17 years later I would be grateful that we did as the petrol is ULEZ compliant where as the diesel is not so we can keep this near prefect condition car going a bit longer. Although Under pressure from the wife and children to change. Great Video as usual.

Not much between either of these, but I'd have the Kangoo as, for me, the dashboard garden edges it.

[@anthonystevens8683]

Nice one Ian. I must confess I miss some of the simplicity of some cars, These days everything is electronic and probably controlled by some silicon brain. I'm leaning to a van based car as a future consideration for both practicality and maintenance. With all the modern gadgetry including cameras and sensors etc I think we are becoming a tad reliant on them and loosing our skills to do simple things like parking a car. Many thanks for sharing.

[@bikerlad3138]

Berlingo with the 1.9 diesel is the choice for you sir

[@vivianhughes9347]

Berlingo every time for me! I had a nice M49 petrol which lasted me 20 years and was still good when I recently sold it. Now got a B9 1.6 XTR diesel which is really superb (apart from the worst "triangle of doom" you've ever seen!). My friend had a Kangoo but it wasn't built as strong and she had few problems. Great comparison video. Thanks!

[@ColinCarFan]

Nice video - as idiosyncratic as ever! I drove several Berlingos and Kangoos on French/Spanish holidays in the noughties. Both excellent family transport but the Berlingo/Partner had more room, and better ride comfort for passengers. Generally a more relaxing drive.

The berlingo is clearly better. It has an integrated footbath.

In the area of France where I live these are absolutely everywhere, although I'd say the Berlingo outnumbers the Kangoo. Country folks definitely value their practicality, and these are roomy inside while being small enough for small country lanes. Perfect !

[@neilsheppard6673]

Oh I really want to pick the Kangoo for sentimental reasons because wifey had a van version few years back and I loved it. It too was a 1.5dCi and was a little flying machine! However, out of those two I'd have to go for the Berlingo, as that particular example is so much more well appointed than the Kangoo. I also think the petrol engine was more willing than the usually excellent dCi. As a quick aside, the second rear-view mirror in the Kangoo is exactly for what you said it's for - keeping an eye on those pesky kids. We had flip down one on the Galaxy we used to have and used to call it the "naughty cam"!

[@xxrs2009]

I like how simplistic and cv2/R4 like the Kangoo is. Maybe more for shopping and short hauling trips. On longer rides The Berlingo is the one I guess. In Ian's place I'd go for a Picasso or C5, it's more interesting imo.

[@joelwebster8227]

I'd pick the Kangoo. I ran a Megane with that 1.5Dci engine for a couple of years, and its a great engine for high mileage motorway work. But the modu-top on the Berlingo is cool, even though I'm not sure what I'd actually put in it, and it seemed a bit flimsy.

[@chaospxl_]

For the time me and my family had owned a Berlingo Multispace 1.6 16V, it was one reliable and dependable drive let me tell ya! it was quite nimble for what it was worth, was pretty fun to drive despite it`s outer Diemensions, and on top of that, had held us over 20 years and almost 180.000 miles. Sadly the car was getting weaker, older and sadly more brittle. Sold it for 700€ to an export, it was taken away, with me and my mom having tears in our eyes, as we knew we were going to miss our old friend. One who had carried me since the Childhood. Eitherway, i hope wherever our lil Berlingo is heading now, he will keep on running, and keep being the reliable Family Transport it always was.

[@TheShinyShow]

I was thinking surely 5 sunroofs means more chance of leaking, then you opened the rear seat storage 'tank'

[@rexthesheep]

My mum actually had a Renault Kangoo cargo in the mid-to-late '00s for a florist business she was briefly a part of. It became something of a local icon. For a time it was our only car so I also very nearly learned to drive in it! (though I didn't end up learning to drive as a teenager and I'm only doing it now in my 30s. ^^; ) I believe it was indeed the turbo-diesel like this one too. Unfortunately the passenger MPV versions of these vehicles have never been all that popular here in Australia; a lot of them straight up weren't even sold here in that spec for the longest time. I know the Volkswagen Caddy California has a following here though, so maybe that could be changing.

[@timtube1663]

The ceiling storage in the Kangoo is like the overhead lockers on a plane 😂

Looking up at the stars through the modutop makes for a great night. The A/C works efficiently, The Traction control is effective enough to keep out of bother on the skiddy stuff, And the roofrails/ rack are more than sufficient to carry my kayak around, or mount the roofbox upon. Its so utilitarian and capable of any task its truly the Swiss army knife of motoring. All in all, It's cheap to run, And loads of fun. I definately won't be parting with it.

[@daniellee9015]

Absolutely brilliant video Ian ❤️ 👍 it's difficult which to go for both great vans brilliant

[@davidvanhansen]

The Original: The "Berlingo" with two sliding doors. The quality of the materials, the noise insulation and the engines are much better than the Kangoo. And thanks for the nice Video!

[@willswheels283]

Thanks Ian, very informative video, I’ve had the opportunity to drive similar examples of the Berlingo 1.6 petrol and Kangoo 1.5 and I think I agree with your comments, the Berlingo is nicer to drive, my ex had a Berlingo 1.6 petrol and it was pleasant to drive and own, plenty of storage capacity and a good all rounder. I’ve driven the van version 1.5 Kangoo and it was pleasant, the interior I think is a bit lighter and simple which I think I prefer. The 1.5 dci engine I think is a tad wheezy in anything bigger than a Clio, best going for the bigger Diesel engine or a bigger petrol.

[@hemptinyhouse6663]

I’ve had a 1.2 Kangoo for about 6 months. It’s been OK. I find it pleasant enough to drive, it’s very practical (I like the rubber mats and painted metal inside) and there’s plenty of room. It goes round corners well enough and grips OK in the wet. The plastics are a bit flimsy and I have a couple of minor electrical gremlins to sort out, but for a 15 year old car it’s pretty decent. The Kangoo build quality is a big improvement on a R5 that I used to own. Previously I had 2 Skoda Felicia’s which were absolutely bulletproof but I got the Kangoo to make a micro camper!

[@bombakdik]

Fleetwood Mac oh yes. Lovely video. My girlfriend’s 307 has the same engine as the Berlingo. TU5. I must say that it is a very polyvalent engine even having some torque low down. Cruising very easily is okay low down and in higher revs it is happy as well.

[@petermostyneccleston2884]

I had a Berlingo van, first registered in 2010. After that I would choose the Berlingo, between 2008 and 2018. The Kangoo is also sold as a Mercedes van, with the same engine as well.

[@ficerion6478]

The petrol TU5 is a great engine, have one in a 206 XSi and it offers decent enough performance but is also great on fuel too. Can get around 40mpg around town and around 48mpg on a long run. Also have an older berlingo too albeit with the DV6 lump. The comfort and ride on them is excellent and they really are a great vehicle for long distances.

[@nathanstevful]

1461cc DCI engine powering like a dream even in the Dacia today and whisper it, the Mercedes A class!! A diamond of an engine as long as you look after it. There was an issue with the engine when it was put in the Juke and Qashqai some how they managed to get the drive belt and water pump pulley slightly mis aligned which resulted in many engine failures at 60k or less.

[@100SteveB]

I would prefer the Berlingo myself. Love all that storage space in the roof and under the floor - and the under floor storage is also a good place to transport your goldfish apparently. ( I once had a Mitsubishi Galant that allowed you to transport goldfish in the boot if you removed the spare wheel) I have never really liked Renault's, probably due to my experiences with them back in the 80's and early 90's. I used to drive a Transit van for work back then, but when it went in for a service we used to get a Renault Traffic as a courtesy van, it was like driving a tin can down the road, sound levels inside were appalling, and the foot pedals were off-set to the left, making for a horrid driving experience. We also had Renault Laguna's on the fleet, they were let down by the pedals again being off-set to the left, and also the fact the pedals were so close together you were forever hitting two pedals at once. And finally we got a Kangoo, the noise level inside was horrible, and the suspension thudded it's way over irregularities in the road. Those experiences put me off Renault's for life, probably unfairly because no doubt some of their later cars were much nicer.

[@jdtseventyfour]

great comparison review. I must admit when the clutch went on my wives 307 2.0 Hdi we replaced it with a 1.6 petrol engine'd one. I can confirm the simplicity of the engine compared to a diesel is great. for example I'm looking forwards to changing the cambelt rather than dreading it compared to the Hdi derivative. The engine has quite a nice sporty note too. As always a great video.

[@seancooke7332]

It is hard to choose as both are attractive and practical. The slight width advantage of the Berlingo might just sway it but I wouldn't call it a deal breaker because of how both of these little vehicles make a Peugeot 208, Ford Fiesta or Vauxhall Corsa seem very cramped, impractical and expensive in comparison.

[@alansmith1770]

The Berlingo has so much glass & storage vry well designed

[@sambarker7930]

I work at a Renault garage, if a Kangoo is traded in, it still goes through the workshop and usually ends up being sold on the forecourt (usually very quickly). I'd also say that the 1.5 dci is one of the better engines of the last 20 years, as apart from a few relatively minor/superficial things in some applications they're pretty bomb proof (and if cared for properly will happily reach 200k miles no problem). Renault are still making that engine

One advantage you could get a 4x4 Kangoo from the factory, for a Berlingo you need to go to Dangel to have one converted.

Now you have to try a Mk1 Doblo in order to 'get the set'. I'm afraid I can't offer mine as it's now permanently in 'limp' mode and not likely to be fixed as it won't be any use to me after August. Anyway, I think you'd prefer the 1.9. It would be interesting to see how the basic leaf spring rear end stacks up for ride and handling.

[@Candisa]

Is the MK1 Doblo leaf spring at the back? That's funny how they went from very oldskool utilitarian to over the top with the bi-link rear suspension in the 2010 and 2015 model, and now back to the average rear-axle in the Stellantis one.

I had a 2006 1.6 petrol Peugeot partner Tepee for a few month. Great car. But shocking mpg. Never got above 28 mpg. Then I got a 2.0 HDi. That ran on fresh air 🤣

[@Candisa]

Neither, I have a 2016 Fiat Doblo T-Jet: slightly larger in all directions and more square than the Berlingo, making it ever so practical, 1.4 turbo-petrol engine providing good torque from 2k rpm and pulling through all the way past 5k rpm if you so desire, yet no EGR, no direct injection, no variable valve anything, so still a quite simple engine, which is combined with a 6-speed gearbox. Downside is the rather stiff suspension, it's definitely not a French car. It does have independent bi-link rear suspension and overall a great platform though, so it handles really well around corners. Oh, and most of all: no triangle of doom, while unlike the Kangoo the passenger side wiper does reach the top of the windscreen. It isn't economical on the go go juice, but I have an LPG-conversion. The windows in the sliding doors roll down if you have seats there (mine's a van with fixed windows), the rear side windows are always fixed.

[@philhealey449]

[@CaseyJonesNumber1]

The washers issue may be due to an aftermarket washer pump. I changed one on my Ford, and on trying the front wash/wipe had the rear screen washed with the front wipers operating; operating the rear wash/wipe washed the front windscreen with the rear wiper operating. The washer motors are polarity sensitive, and only two wires, so chopping the wires near the pump and reversing them had it all working correctly.

I couldn't fault their practically, anything from 3-seat sofas to several 20" framed Mountain bikes, as well as taking 5 people camping and acting as the official transport as I was support for two teams of four during the 2006 Oxfam Trailwalk! The only fly in the ointment was their reliability, frequent trips to the Renault dealership for both to iron out manufacturing faults during the early part of ownership!
