The VAUXHALL MERIVA (2010-13) 5DR MPV 1.3 CDTI ECOFLEX DPF SS 95 S AC is a five-door people carrier, roomier than a family hatchback but smaller than a full-size MPV. In the UK used-car market, it suits buyers wanting space and an easy-to-manage footprint. mycarcheck.com has recorded seven checks covering five VINs, a small sample rather than a market-wide picture. The average private-sale valuation is £1,500; cars averaged 158,000 miles, around 6,000 miles a year, and roughly 2.6 previous keepers. Check each car’s history and condition carefully, especially at this age and mileage. The 1.3-litre diesel Ecoflex is aimed at economical everyday driving, making this Meriva a sensible choice for small families, errands and commutes. Its flexible cabin and distinctive rear-hinged back doors make passenger access easier than in many rivals, including the Ford B-Max. Less fashionable than an SUV, it offers practicality in a compact, budget-friendly package.
