The SUZUKI GRAND VITARA (1998-06) 5DR SUV 2.5 V6 AUTO is a compact, five-door 4x4-style SUV from an era when practical off-road ability mattered more than city-car polish. In the UK used market it is now an older, budget-priced alternative to family crossovers, with a raised driving position and room for everyday use. mycarcheck.com has recorded nine look-ups covering eight different VINs, so these figures offer a small-sample snapshot rather than a full market picture. The checks show an average private-sale valuation of £600, average recorded mileage of 92,000 miles and annual use of 4,000 miles. Cars checked had averaged just over five previous keepers. The V6 and automatic gearbox make this Grand Vitara relaxed and lively beside many small 4x4s, though fuel economy is unlikely to match a modern crossover. It suits buyers wanting a capable runabout for family trips, country lanes and outdoor adventures, rather than a commuter.
