The DAIHATSU SIRION (2005-10) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.5 102 SX AUTO4 is a small, five-door city hatchback, offering straightforward transport rather than SUV space or premium-car polish. Its automatic gearbox and compact size make it an appealing option for town driving, while the 1.5-litre engine gives it more power than rivals. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 21 look-ups covering 13 distinct VINs, a useful snapshot rather than a huge sample. Checked cars averaged £1,300 in private-sale value and 74,000 miles, with around 3,000 miles driven annually. They had just over three previous keepers on average, so check each car’s history and condition carefully. The Sirion suits commuters, first-time buyers and downsizers wanting an easy-to-park automatic with useful rear doors and everyday practicality. Against Toyota Yaris, Honda Jazz and Nissan Micra, it is a rarer choice, but its roomy cabin and stronger 1.5 engine stand out. Shop on condition, service records and asking price.
