The HONDA HR-V (1999-05) 3DR SUV 4WD 1.6 AUTO5 is a compact, three-door SUV from the era when small, car-like 4x4s were still unusual. In the UK used market it sits between a hatchback and a traditional off-roader: taller and more versatile than a small car, but easier to manage than a large 4x4. Its automatic gearbox and four-wheel drive give it a distinctive appeal. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 82 look-ups covering 58 different VINs, offering a snapshot of interest in this model. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £700 and average recorded mileage of 99,000, with typical annual use of about 7,000 miles. The average keeper count is around five, so buyers should review each car’s history and condition carefully rather than assume all examples have had the same life. Ideal for couples and everyday trips, it feels more distinctive than a hatchback, though newer crossovers are more refined.
