The CHEVROLET CAPTIVA (2007-12) 5DR SUV 4WD 2.0 CDI 148 LTX 7 SEAT is a sizeable, practical family SUV, offering seven seats and four-wheel drive in a package aimed at buyers needing more space than a conventional hatchback. In the UK used-car market, it sits among affordable, older seven-seat SUVs rather than premium models. mycarcheck.com has recorded 330 look-ups covering 185 distinct vehicles, a useful sample of real-world interest. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of about £1,300 and average recorded mileage of 122,000 miles; annual mileage averages 6,000. Vehicles have had around four previous keepers on average, so checking service history, condition and ownership details is especially worthwhile. Seven seats suit families, school runs and holidays, while diesel power and four-wheel drive help on longer trips and slippery roads. Compared with compact SUVs, the Captiva offers versatility, but buyers should weigh its space against age, running costs and condition.
