I'd probably service it, see if you can get purflux filters from GSF or from a hypermarket.
Boot liner, roof bars and tow bar maybe cheaper from a french car parts place many fit tow bars are buy and fit as the tow bar electrics and fitting are part of the MOT.
Helicopter tape type stuff on the bumper top?

First proper drive in the berlingo yesterday out to Point Clear in Essex to test my eyesight. We were just walking so didn’t load it up(sorry @dammit), getting 48.6mpg apparently. Might go crazy and stick premium diesel in it seeing as it’s the same price regular was a couple of months ago. It kinda goes when you put your foot down which I wasn’t expecting.
Drives nice, driving position is endlessly adjustable. I’m used to driving a panel van or transit pickup with no rear screen so the lack of blind spots in the berlingo is refreshing.
Removed the massive, ugly dealer sticker from the rear screen.
To do:
-Boot liner
-New stereo(standard slot but currently no Bluetooth or aux which sucks)
-Roof rails
-Bumper protector(it’s currently spotless and know I’ll smash it up loading bikes in the end)
-Yellow headlights(or maybe just bulbs as sadly they’re no longer legal on post ‘93 cars in France and we visit my folks there often)
-Wheel trims are spotless but considering ditching them and maybe painting the rims or even Moon discs for the lols.
-Tow ball + electrics
