Peugeot Partner Camper (Short – L1)
Cheap and good for DIY custom camper builds. It’s the same size and engine as Berlingo – both are quite popular as DIY camper cars, mainly because of their low entry price. I would recommend the L2 – Long version. The other versions are the same, just shorter – which will limit your sleeping area at the back. The newer versions come with the same nifty tailgate window and roof window as the Berlingo.
This car’s boot is 182 cm long ⤢, 113 cm tall ↕, and 125 cm wide ↔.
NimbleCamper rating: 3/5
