In the UK, it sits among supermini rivals such as the Ford Fiesta and Vauxhall Corsa, offering a familiar Volkswagen badge in an easy-to-park package. Mycarcheck.com recorded 64 look-ups covering 53 distinct VINs, a useful sample of interest in this older model. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £300, average recorded mileage of 94,000 miles and annual mileage of 4,000 miles.

The 1.4-litre engine suits longer journeys better than tiny city cars, while its size makes parking and commuting straightforward.
