The PROTON GEN-2 (2004-16) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.6 110 GL is a compact five-door hatchback, positioned as an alternative to familiar UK small-car choices. Its manageable size makes parking and driving straightforward, while the rear doors and cabin space give it more flexibility than a city car. It suits budget-conscious motoring. Mycarcheck.com has logged just four look-ups for GEN-2 version, covering four VINs, so the sample is small and should not be treated as a complete picture of ownership. Within checks, average mileage was 81,000, annual use averaged 6,000 miles, and cars had three previous keepers; average private-sale valuation was £400. The GEN-2’s styling and simple, value-led approach help it stand apart from common Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra hatchbacks. The 1.6-litre petrol version is suited to commuting, errands and first-time buyers seeking transport, though age and limited sample data make condition and service history important. Check the car carefully before buying.
