The VAUXHALL ADAM (2012-20) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.4I TURBO SS 150 EU6 GRAND SLAM is a sporty, three-door city car: compact and easy to park, but more powerful and distinctive than a basic runabout. In the UK used-car market, it sits among style-led small hatchbacks, appealing to drivers who want character in a manageable size. With a turbocharged 1.4-litre engine and 150 horsepower, the Grand Slam offers lively acceleration and a more engaging drive than many rivals, while retaining the Adam’s personalisable looks and friendly urban manners. It is best suited to singles, couples and commuters, or as a second car; its three-door layout and limited rear-seat space make it less practical for growing families.
