Citroen Dispatch

Im on my 2nd dispatch,the first one i had was the smaller 1.6ltr engine which did struggle a bit when fully loaded, i have since up graded to the 2ltr engine and it is a massive improvment, fuel economy has gone up and the vehicle is a lot more responsive under acceleration. The twin side loading doors work perfeclty for the way i use my van,ive boarded one side loading door off to seperste it from the van enabling me to keep my boiler spares and important tools seperate from the main load space,keeping everything safe.

My first van I quite like it but it can be sluggish and is deceiving in size a lot smaller than I first thought not big enough for me

Tidy little van that’s not to bad. It’s ok on fuel and is ok to drive I have the 1.6 enterprise one on a 2013.

I’ve not had any issues with mine yet apart from a seat belt developed a fault causing the air bag light to come on.

Plenty of space in the back as it’s actually a little bigger than my mates Vito for load space.

Please note tho. DO NOT KEEP YOUR KIT IN IT OVER NIGHT. They are so easy to open it’s frightening, I know this first hand as mine got emptied of tools. In the day in a car park at 3pm. It took them 4 mins to open it empty it and drive off.

Very sluggish van and always found very deceiving as they are a lot bigger than what the initially look

Terrible vans. Suffer badly from fuel filters blocking up. Frequently goes in to limp mode for no apparent reason. Poor build quality and terrible after sales support. Would never buy one of these again. We’ve had 4 in a fleet and the old transit put them all to shame.

Not the most comfortable of vans. Storage capacity is good but it begins to full apart fairly quickly.

If anyone purchasing a Citroen dispatch old or new has the airbag suspension on it, the best thing you can do is buy a spring conversion kit. The airbags are absolutely awful!

Good van, a bit more space than the Berlingo. It's 13 years old and just seems to keep going! It has good load access with two side doors, the only fault with it is the locks are worn and can be a bit difficult to open sometimes.

Good van, a bit heavy to drive compared to my vw but a good little van, touch wood hasnt let me down so far, just a wishbone replacement on mot, had it 3 years now

I loved my dispatch until it got to 5 years old and the turbo went at approx 80000. Gutted. Had it all repaired did it again after 700 miles. Had to get rid.
Other wise it did the job well for a resonably cheap price. I would have another. The new shape looks nice and drives alot better than the old shape.

Good van, get what you pay for but have had to spend a little more than I'd have liked on its maintainance

Has cost me a fortune over the years in repairs. I've had nothing but trouble with mine. Not only that thieves can fold down the side doors using a ratchet strap. It happened to us and many other engineers we've spoken to.

Great van

The outgoing model does the job, although the build quality is quite poor, the paint thickness has to be less than 0.003mm and the interior plastics fall apart . . ..

This big medium sized van is great,I have the long wheelbase version and it is just perfect for my everyday jobs,the double side loading door is perfect for ease of access.
It has great storage compartments and is very efficient on fuel
