INFINITI M (2010-13) is a large, premium executive saloon, rather than a hatchback or SUV. It sits in the UK market alongside the BMW 5 Series, Mercedes-Benz E-Class and Audi A6, but is a less common choice. Its sleek styling, spacious cabin and generous comfort and equipment give it an understated alternative feel for buyers who want something different. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 456 checks covering 142 distinct VINs, providing a useful snapshot of this relatively niche model. The average private-sale valuation is £8,000, while the average recorded mileage is 94,000 miles and annual mileage 7,000. Cars have had about four previous keepers on average, so checking each car’s history and condition is especially worthwhile. Best suited to executives, couples and families, it makes commuting and long journeys comfortable. The INFINITI M is rarer and more distinctive than German rivals, but buyers should weigh running costs against its space and refinement.
