They drive fine, if you're the sort of person who thinks a Touran is significantly better to drive or be in, then I think you're too fussy. If I was doing 20k miles a year I probably wouldn't buy one, but as practical transport that has endless space, is tough as anything and won't throw big bills at you they're very hard to beat.
I don't fetishise them. i don't own one, I just know that when I've steered people into them I've always been glad I did, they are simple cars that do a job and do it well, which is what everyone who isn't into cars and doesn't want to spend much ought to be looking for. I would never recommend anyone bought a 10+ year old Touran, VAG stuff just isn't built to last.
The C4 is too full of features and electronics which go wrong now they're getting on a bit compared to the Berlingo which is basic and really a van with windows and therefore pretty tough.
