Having owned by Berlingo for 4 years and having done over 100k over the 50k when i bought it, I must say I've been impressed with its performance and reliability overall. I am still using her every day as a courier and am only now having to spend to keep her going. Engine still runs like a dream although the cam pulley bearing has just gone at a cost of £120. Does tend to go through brake discs and pads and had to have a new air-intake valve but at no great cost. Cambelt kit changes at each 100k but dont get these fitted at a dealership, you'll pay £200 over the odds. Inside the cab the furnishing are very low spec and various components tend to loosen and rattle after a time. Overall: Great reliable little van, good economy and will go forever when looked after.
