My Berlingo is a 1900cc normally aspirated, as was my C15 I had before it. Both slow as hell, but I have bikes if I want to go fast... Fuel economy isn't brilliant, but I'be got over 600 miles out of a tankful several times, and found that moving the front number plate so it blocked the intake in the bumper improved the consumption by about 3mpg! Raising the tyre pressures above standard also helps, with no detriment to handling or braking (cheap tyres that aren't great at either in the first place...)
Biggest problem I've encountered is that aftermarket suspension drop links are rally crap, and don't last long at all before the suspension knocking stats again...
