The HYUNDAI SONATA (2005-09) 4DR SALOON 2.4 160 CDX is a mid-size, four-door family saloon from Hyundai, offering a roomier alternative to a hatchback. In the UK used-car market, it sits among affordable older large saloons, appealing to buyers who want comfort and space without choosing a premium badge. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 12 checks covering six distinct VINs, so the figures offer a small snapshot rather than a market-wide picture. Across those checks, average recorded mileage was 73,000, with about 2,000 miles driven annually; the average private-sale valuation was £700. The cars had an average of 4.25 previous keepers. With its 2.4-litre petrol engine and CDX trim, the Sonata suits drivers wanting a roomy saloon for commuting, family trips or longer journeys. It is a less fashionable, lower-cost alternative to rivals such as the Ford Mondeo and Vauxhall Vectra. Check condition, service history and running costs before buying.
