    I viewed this video to decide whether the Combo worked as a rental. It helped a lot. It also helped planning for luggage. Great video.

    Definitely my kind of car. Roomy, comfortable, versatile, discreet. Going fast on the highway is obsolete by now, with all those speed traps and hidden cameras.

    Thanks for sharing. Usually get the Zafira but only only possible to get Combo Life now which I wasn’t too keen on before watching this, more confident now. Zafira has a real blind spot driver side windscreen. Having disabled dad, I’m disabled, a teenager son and 3 grandkids I really do rely on the secure locks and controls for back from driver position so that’ll be something I’ll have to check with Vauxhall as we’re in the north. I really appreciate your time and assistance making this video

      Julie Anne Myers, Just seen your comment, if you are still looking at the Combo life, go for the long wheelbase, it’s a brilliant motor, loads of room and great to drive to, unfortunately if you require the automatic you will have to go for the five seater, they don’t do the automatic in the long wheel base, it’s a great motor, and it’s a lot better than the Zafira.

    I guess not much has changed over past few years on the Combo Life. I have planned a trip to Ireland from Texas and have rented the Combo Life from Avis. This vid was very helpful to me as I prepare for this experience. There will be 6 adults with luggage and I looks like this vehicle will be adequate for us. I am looking forward to the adventure.

      Looking at doing the same thing, was there enough room for passengers and luggage? Asked the rental company if one of the third row seats can be removed for our trip, waiting for reply.

      @@dougjustus1333 The trip was great! the Combo Life did have enough room for our 6 passengers and luggage. The longest trip away from out base was three days so we did not have to pack a whole lot. Many of the roads we travelled were quite narrow and the Combo Life is quite large which made it tricky with oncoming vehicles. I would definitely rent one again.

      Zafira B was horrible in build quality.
      Zafira C (tourer) was fine apparently, a bit pricy though. sadly they stopped it in 2018.

    I tested Peugeot Rifter Long and the third row is adjustable there - you can move it back and forth. As a result adult can comfortably seat there without any issue. It's really strange that there is no such thing in Opel.

      This is a rebadged Citroen Berlingo. There are 3 sizes, the short one, the long one and the extended wheelbase xl one
      This is more of a cargo van while the xl would be more of a people transportion van. At least it's usually like this in Portugal where I live (this car is very popular in Spain and Portugal)

    PSA needs to offer this as an EV; there seems to be enough space under the floor for a battery pack. Perhaps they could use a similar motor and battery pack as in the eCorsa (100 kW, 50kWh, 205 mile range).
