In the UK market, it offers a more upmarket alternative to ordinary city cars, while staying more compact and easier to park than many family cars. mycarcheck.com records 9 checks across 4 distinct VINs, a modest sample that should be treated as a snapshot, not a market-wide average. These checks indicate an average private-sale valuation of £500, average most recent recorded mileage of 92,000 miles, and average annual mileage of 2,000 miles. The vehicles had around 5.6 previous keepers on average. The long-wheelbase automatic suits town driving and relaxed commuting, while the tall shape makes entry and exit easy.
