Enjoy replacing expensive exhaust manifolds ? Those 2.4cdti hondas are notorious for it. Chuffing pain to get at , 1 of the guys at work is on his 2nd and anothers on his third – at least his has honda warrentyy the other guy has to pay for his as honda laughed at him 🙂
Spooky talks sense re tax
And the berlingo is a brilliant bike car. Dont be scared of the 1.6hdi just make sure it has verifiable service history at the correct intervals unfortuanly – this does not mean service stamps it means reciepts.
I also reckon for your usage look at cheaper and bank the rest for repairs.
I picked up a mk2 1.9berlingo for 1400 quid and spent 200 changing the cambelt water pump and tensioners . Been a good little motor. I went for the1.9 as ive had a van with that for the last 5 years as well so know it inside out its quirks etc, but i would buy the 2.0hdi over again.
