The VAUXHALL ADAM (2012-20) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.4 16V ECOFLEX SS 87 EU5 JAM is a three-door city car with a distinctive, fashion-conscious feel. In the UK market, it offers an alternative to runabouts such as the Ford Ka and Fiat 500, prioritising style and easy everyday urban driving over space. mycarcheck.com recorded 19 look-ups, but these covered just one distinct VIN, so the figures are a very limited snapshot, not a market-wide guide. In this sample, the average private-sale valuation was £6,300; recorded mileage averaged 17,000 miles, annual mileage 6,000, and each car had about one previous keeper on record. The 1.4-litre petrol engine and stop-start system suit commuting, errands and first-time drivers seeking a straightforward, economical-feeling car. Its compact size makes town parking simple, while the JAM trim’s individual styling helps it stand out. Check a vehicle’s history and condition, as with any used Adam, before buying.
