What to Look For When Buying Used
- DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter): Essential for Euro 6 compliance. Frequent short journeys can clog the DPF. Check for warning lights or a history of DPF regeneration issues.
- Timing Belt: Most 1.5 and 2.0 BlueHDi engines use a timing belt, not a chain. Crucial to check service history for belt replacement intervals (typically 100,000 miles or 10 years, whichever comes first, but verify with service book). Failure is catastrophic.
- AdBlue System: The AdBlue tank and injection system can develop faults, leading to engine warning lights and limp-home mode. Ensure no AdBlue warnings are present.
- Suspension: Listen for knocks or creaks, especially from the front. Worn ball joints or drop links are common.
- Sliding Doors: Check for smooth operation and signs of damage from impacts or heavy use. Test both sides if applicable.
- Rust Spots: While generally good, inspect wheel arches, bottom of doors, and around the loading bay for any surface rust, particularly on older, higher-mileage examples.
- Clutch/Gearbox: Test the manual gearbox for smooth shifts and the clutch for slippage or a high biting point. The EAT8 automatic is generally robust but check for smooth engagement.
Running Costs for Businesses
- Insurance (Group): Citroen Dispatch models typically fall into insurance groups 28-35 (out of 50) for commercial vehicles, depending on engine size and trim. Example: A 2.0 BlueHDi 120hp Enterprise could be group 31.
- Fuel Economy: Expect 38-50 mpg (combined) from the diesel engines, with the 1.5 BlueHDi offering the best figures. Real-world economy depends heavily on load and driving style.
- Servicing: Main dealer servicing can range from £250 for a minor service to £500+ for a major service. Independent specialists often offer competitive rates.
- ULEZ/CAZ Compliance: All Euro 6 diesel Dispatch models (post-Sept 2016) are compliant with current Ultra Low Emission Zones (ULEZ) and Clean Air Zones (CAZ) across the UK.
Is the Citroen Dispatch Right For Your Business?
The Citroen Dispatch is ideal for businesses needing a medium-sized panel van with good load capacity, efficient engines, and car-like driving dynamics. It's particularly well-suited for:
- Tradespeople (plumbers, electricians, carpenters) needing to carry tools and moderate amounts of materials.
- Delivery drivers navigating urban environments who appreciate its compact dimensions and maneuverability.
- Businesses requiring a comfortable and well-equipped van for longer journeys.
