In the UK, it helped popularise practical, car-like 4x4s, pairing automatic convenience with all-wheel drive for extra confidence. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 303 look-ups covering 138 different VINs, a useful sample of real-world interest. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £1,200 and average recorded mileage of 109,000 miles; typical annual mileage is 4,000, with about three previous keepers (3.27).
