Use to drive an 04 one. Still see it around. Nice van to drive, if maybe a bit slow. Non turbo engine. Had problems with the electrics from the start, i.e. Central locking would just cme on for no reason leaving you locked in the van for a while. Bulbs kept blowing for no apperant reason. Neither issue could be resloved by Citroen. The company had 18 of these and only 2 gave issues, one was so bad that the van was given back.

Drove a 01 one for a couple of years and was mostly trouble free apart from the exhaust snapping off on a dual carraigeway.

They have no turbo and are as slow as fcuk to accelerate. Oh and they have a very low driving position if that bothers you.
