These records show an average private-sale valuation of £700 and average latest recorded mileage of 113,000 miles. Typical annual mileage is 5,000, while cars have had about five previous keepers on average. These figures describe checked examples, not a guarantee of any individual car’s condition or value. The 1.4 S suits commuters, first-time drivers and couples seeking an affordable, easy-to-place car. Against rivals, it offers familiar Civic practicality and a lively, straightforward drive, though three doors mean rear access is less convenient.
