average use
Based on the most recent mileage data for 2009-2013 Toyota Urban Cruisers, the highest proportion of vehicles (15.7%) are recorded between 90,000 and 100,000 miles. There are notable concentrations of vehicles in the 80,000 to 90,000 miles (12.8%) and 110,000 to 120,000 miles (11.1%) ranges. Very low mileage vehicles (under 10,000 miles) account for just 1.3%, while higher mileage vehicles over 150,000 miles collectively make up around 8-9%. This suggests that most owners keep their vehicles within the 80,000 to 120,000 miles range, with relatively fewer vehicles at both very low and very high mileage points.
vehicle values
The data shows that the majority of private sale valuations for a 2009-13 Toyota Urban Cruiser fall within the £1,000 to £3,000 range, accounting for approximately 90.6% of all valuations (58.7% in the £2,000-£3,000 bracket and 31.9% in the £1,000-£2,000 bracket). Very few vehicles are valued below £1,000 (just 0.4%) or above £4,000 (8.1% in the £3,000-£4,000 bracket and 0.9% in the £4,000-£5,000 bracket). This indicates a relatively narrow valuation spread centered around the £1,000 to £3,000 range, suggesting most privately sold vehicles of this model are valued within this bracket, likely due to factors such as age, mileage, and condition typical for this period.
production years
The data indicates that the majority of Toyota Urban Cruiser vehicles from the 2009-2013 range were manufactured between 2009 and 2012. Specifically, the highest percentage, 31.5%, was produced in 2010, suggesting a peak production year for this model. Vehicles manufactured in 2011 and 2012 account for 25.5% and 15.3% respectively, while 27.7% were made in 2009. This distribution suggests that while the vehicle's manufacturing span covers four years, most vehicles on the road are from the earlier part of that range, which could influence the availability of newer vs. older model features and potentially affect the vehicle's depreciation or value in the used car market.
colour popularity
The data reveals that the most common paint colours for the Toyota Urban Cruiser (2009-13) are Silver (24.7%) and Purple (23.8%), indicating a preference for both classic and bold hues among owners. Black and Grey are also relatively popular, making up a significant portion of the fleet at 20.4% and 17.9% respectively. In contrast, White and Red are quite rare, with White at only 1.3% and Red at 1.7%, suggesting these colours are less favored for this model. Blue accounts for around 10.2%, adding another option that balances vibrant and subdued choices. Overall, the data demonstrates a diverse colour palette with a slight skew towards Silver and Purple.

Notably, 14.5% of vehicles have had 6 keepers, and a smaller percentage, around 13.2%, have had only 2 keepers. Very few vehicles have extensive ownership histories beyond 12 keepers or with only a single owner. This distribution suggests most vehicles change hands multiple times but tend to settle into a moderate number of keepers over their lifecycle.
