The DS AUTOMOBILES DS3 (2016-21) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.2 PURETECH 110 SS EU6 CAFE RACER EAT AUTO6 is a stylish, compact three-door hatchback, sitting in the small-car market alongside the MINI Hatch and Audi A1. Its Cafe Racer edition adds distinctive design touches, while the 1.2-litre petrol engine and six-speed automatic make it a friendly everyday option. With three doors and compact dimensions, it is best suited to singles, couples and commuters who want an easy-to-park car with more personality than a basic city runabout. The automatic gearbox can make busy traffic simpler, though rear-seat access is less convenient than in a five-door hatchback, so it may be less practical for family duties. mycarcheck.com has five checks across three VINs, a small sample: averages are £8,100 for private-sale value, 27,000 miles recorded and 5,000 miles a year, with 1.2 previous keepers.
