mycarcheck.com records 139 look-ups covering 54 distinct VINs, a useful snapshot rather than a complete picture of every car. Within those checks, average recorded mileage was 66,000, with annual mileage around 3,000; cars had about four previous keepers on average. The average private-sale valuation was £400.
The low valuation makes condition and history especially important: these are check-sample figures, not a guaranteed asking price.

Against newer rivals, age and upkeep matter more than badge appeal.
