Mercedes-Benz Citan 2013 - Test Drive Review

Based on the Renault Kangoo, Merc's Citan marks its entry into the light van market, meaning It can now offer a full range of vans in the UK. Heavily restyled and re-engineered the Citan is well worth a look. Feels and drives like a Merc.

Finally Mercedes has worked out how to make a van that doesn't rust and isn't easy to break into. Get Renault to make it!

Can anyone tell me where the power steering bottle is on these

Hi, nice review.

Does this van come in Automatic transmission and are the sliding doors available in electric option?

Anyone had one of these? Are they reliable?

Unfortunately I don't like the look of it... It's quite ugly! I wanted a vw caddy maxi kombi but they only do a 1.6 ltr engine for some reason? Have to have the All window version to have a 1.9ltr. This would have been perfect apart from it being ugly.... I just can't seem to get what I want... The vito and transporter are excellent but too large for what I need.... This coupled with the fact I don't want anything French means their is nothing out there for me.... I have also looked at pick-ups, but the running costs are ridiculous..

I drive a 18 plate citan 111 cdi.
This van is a pile of shit.
The wings are plastic..yes i said plastic..
Cheap hard plastic to the touch inside the whole vehicle.
Gear stick housing in the way of your leg.
Hand brake lever is on the passengers side ffs.
No auto lights.
