Its folding third row offers seven-seat flexibility, making it a practical UK used-car choice for families needing occasional extra seats. mycarcheck.com has recorded 257 checks across 136 distinct VINs, a useful sample for this model. In those records, the average private-sale valuation is £1,000, average recorded mileage is 115,000 miles, and cars have about four previous keepers. Annual mileage averages 6,000, though condition and service history deserve close checks too. The 1.8-litre petrol Active prioritises flexible family practicality over sporty driving. It suits school runs and holidays, while its folding seats make it a useful occasional seven-seater.
