In the UK it occupies a specialist used-car niche, appealing to drivers who value involvement and character over everyday practicality. mycarcheck.com recorded 158 look-ups across 75 distinct VINs, a useful sample for this older model. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £1,900, mileage of 115,000 miles and annual use of about 2,000 miles.
