    I wouldn't be sure to be honest. The 151 Combo was based on the older Fiat Doblo van whereas the 232 Combo is based on the current Peugeot Partner/Citroen Berlingo vans.

    Dimensions of all model types are listed here if wiki is to be believed: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opel_Combo

    The wheelbase on the Berlingo based Combo is only 30mm longer, I’m not sure how they’re fixed on though.

    Are u saying the new van is a little longer.



  • Registered Users Posts: 73,396 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm


    The distance between front and back wheels is longer, and the van itself is marginally longer (by like 15mm)

    Thats good news so as my old side bars will fit new van



  • Registered Users Posts: 73,396 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm


    They’ll be pretty much the right length, they may not have the mounting lugsin the same places, but I’d chance it either way, you’d surely get them on, I think they’re only held on with corner brackets either way.

    No problem the bars i have i had them on a 08 combo originally ,so i can hopefully just change the bracket again. Thanks alot for your help.
