The DAIHATSU GRAND MOVE (1997-01) 5DR ESTATE 1.6 AUTO4 is a compact, tall-sided family estate with a roomy, people-friendly layout. In the UK it sits between a small hatchback and a traditional estate: easier to park than a large load-lugger, while offering a higher roof and more useful cabin space than many superminis. Its four-speed automatic makes everyday driving straightforward. It is best suited to couples or families wanting an affordable, practical runabout for shopping, school trips and local journeys, rather than a modern long-distance cruiser. Compared with rivals such as compact hatchbacks, the Grand Move’s standout appeal is its upright shape and flexible space; it feels more like a small people carrier than a conventional estate. The 1.6-litre engine and automatic transmission favour relaxed convenience over sporty driving. mycarcheck.com data is limited: five checks across three VINs, averaging £400 private-sale valuation, 34,000 miles, 1,000 annually and 3.8 previous keepers.
