I prefer a Doblo, Berlingo, Kangoo, etc. If i want practicality, i want maximum practicality.

That drive through comment was brutal 😂

The amount of headroom in the Doblo is crazy!

I'd have the Doblo every single time.

Enough headroom for Marge Simpson in the Doblo with that roofline.

Yes!!

The Ford (Focus) Cmax is much more competent than the Xsara Picasso, doesn't rust as badly, much better stereo and spec and still individual removable seats. Nice review though, you deserve more subscribers. Presumably Up and Down has now finished with the Xsara Picasso?

I owned a brand new Doblo sx 1.3 Multijet. I really enjoyed owning it, being totally reliable, nice to drive and so so practical. Unfortunately, it was white so it did suffer from white van man image...not that I cared. After all, I drive a 70's brown Escort so image obviously doesn't matter 😂 Thanks for the video Siôn, it was a great comparison and brought back some happy Doblo memories 😊

What was it like with the 1.3 mulitjet in it?

@casheycodercasheycoder4823 It was quite a refined engine that provided enough power for normal use, although torque wasn't a patch on the 1.9. Fuel economy wasn't brilliant, especially at motorway speeds.

That Doblo is very nice.

500000 miles. Stunned.

Love the doblo. Thinking of getting one as a wheelchair car. Has yours still got the ramp?

No, this one was never a wheelchair conversion

Worth pointing out that the Doblo also came as a 7 seater in exactly the same footprint and low or high top.

I can't imagine many 'petrol heads' would see this video as 'clickbait' but it is interesting to certain nerds such as myself. The 'normal' Doblo (without the raised roof) is one thing, and I could live with the styling. But the raised roof version has all the sex appeal of an artifical limb. And heaven help you if you were to have an accident in one of these. A better option was/is the Citroen Berlingo Multispace in facelifted Mark 1 form, a similar vehicle, but more attractive and more reliable. HubNut recently did a comparison between the Multispace and the Xsara Picasso, which is also worth a look. For me, the Xsara Picasso is by far the better option than the Fiat. For starters, the 2.0 litre diesel of the Picasso will return 50 mpg - a lot better than the Doblo. It's safer in a crash, it's more reliable, parts are easier to come by, and whilst the styling seems not to appeal to a lot of people, I for one love the way it looks. As an older used vehicle, the 1.6 litre diesel of the Picasso is best avoided. EIther opt for a 1.6 or 1.8 petrol, or if you can find a good one, the 2.0 litre diesel. Even now, Xsara Picassos represent a realistic choice for people motoring on a budget.

The doblo is practical for wheelchair users I remember one of my ex boyfriends dad's girl had a Picasso then downsized it to the doblo cos he got quite heavy the doblo in my opinion is ugly but comfy enough but I would have the Citroen

Id have the fiat.... surprise surprise 😎

Nice comparison, but I can't watch that interior of the Picasso, especially that worn steering wheel. Imaging all the germs that live in there 😜😅

Having had that picasso for a 6 month period, I can definitely say cleanliness of that interior is not an issue!
