VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE (1999-11) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.9 TDI 105 REV 05
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE (1999-11) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.9 TDI 105 REV 05 is a compact, three-door family hatchback with the unmistakable rounded styling of the New Beetle. In the UK used-car market, it stands apart from more conventional hatchbacks such as the Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra, appealing to buyers who want character as well as everyday practicality.
The 1.9-litre diesel suits regular commuting and longer journeys, while its distinctive cabin and relaxed, familiar driving feel make it a pleasant choice for couples, singles or small households. It is less convenient for larger families: rear access and space are limited compared with mainstream five-door rivals. Mycarcheck.com recorded 508 look-ups across 287 different VINs, giving a useful snapshot.
Mycarcheck checks show a £1,300 average private-sale value, average recorded mileage of 118,000 miles and annual mileage of 5,000. Around four previous keepers were typical, so check each car’s history and condition before buying.
