So, the mighty berlingo nears time for replacement, and I find myself considering alternatives (more for a change, rather than anything particularly wrong with it).
It seems to be that its main plus points are:
– It fits 3 bikes wheels-on
– Overall size is small, so Mrs IA is happy driving it round town.
Now, the first point works as the seats come all the way out. I take two out, then it leaves enough length, and height, to wedge a bike behind the front seats easily. If the seats just folded up, i’d not have the length, if they folded flat* I’d not have the height.
If I want a small(..ish) vehicle that fits bikes, seats out seems key. What else does this?
On my list so far is the Skoda Karoq… no idea if bikes actually fit mind.
*the new shape berlingos just announced seem to fold flat, but not come out 🙁
