The VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE CABRIOLET (2016-19) is a compact, four-seat convertible, bringing the Beetle shape to open-air motoring. In the UK used-car market it is a distinctive alternative to small hatchbacks and lifestyle convertibles such as the MINI Convertible, rather than a practical family SUV. Its rounded retro styling gives it plenty of character and makes it easy to spot. It suits couples, singles and small households who want an everyday car with the option of sunny weekend drives. The fabric roof opens up the cabin, while the rear seats and boot offer useful flexibility, though this Beetle is less suited to regular adult passengers or bulky family loads. Its relaxed, characterful appeal sets it apart. Across 203 mycarcheck.com checks covering 85 distinct VINs, the average recorded mileage was 46,000 miles and average annual mileage 6,000. Cars averaged just over one previous keeper (1.24), with an average private-sale valuation of £13,500.
