CITROEN Dispatch reviews by year of make: 2007 2008 2009 Read all reviews

A great van. I bought this second-hand almost a year ago now. 20,000 miles later and it has just needed the usual discs and pads, with not much else having gone wrong. I would have given 5 stars, but economy is the only draw back. The bigger the van the more junk you put in it!

I read all the reviews and decided it would be best to buy from a main Citreon dealer, what a mistake! The van has been nothing but trouble, although the dealer has at all times been helpful and lent us a van when it’s been off the road for repairs. The repairs so far have been both the cv boots split at the same time a new turbo was fitted, both the drop links were replaced and the front anti roll bar replaced. The gearbox drain plug washer is faulty spraying geabox oil everywhere, hopefully the gearbox has suffered no damage, but will have to wait and see. It needs new front discs and pads, the bumper is missing fixings and we have only done 6000 miles since we bought it! I thought it would be safe to buy fron a Citroen main dealer with the Citroen warranty, but how wrong we were. Our last van was the old Citroen Dispatch, a W reg 1.9 turbo bought from a back street dealer and was a great little van with no real problems for five years. This new Dispatch is rubbish compared to the old version, which was much better made.

After selling my Ford Transit (which was hopeless) I decided to take a gamble, and purchased a 2007 Dispatch L2 H1 120Bhp. And what an astonishing van. Nippy on the road, 44mpg, and very comfortable and quiet on long journeys. Coming up to 91,000km and never ever let us down. Any one needing a strong van to tow anything will not be disappointed. The Dispatch can easily pull a 14ft long trailer with two heavy lawnmowers on it. A brilliant brilliant brilliant van.

Bought the vehicle from new, have to say it has not missed a beat, coming up to 50k on the clock, goes like a rocket. Looking to change it now, considering a Vivaro sportive but reading the horror stories on here will think again. Depreciation seems high, best offer so far on a part chop is 6k+vat, 16k new. This seems to follow with the 2 Berlingos I had previously, again faultless vehicles. Parts are expensive, £180 for tyres, £80 for front pads, however, servicing is reasonable, usually £150 - £200. This one has all the whistles and bells , AC/ESP/Alarm etc but all are dealer options and can get quite expensive. Mainly used for distance as I work nationally, comfortable and easy to drive, gutsy and plenty of poke. No issues at all, mainly everyday wear and tear. Would have given 5 stars but for depreciation/parts etc.
