The VOLKSWAGEN EOS (2010-15) 2DR COUPE-CABRIOLET 1.4 TSI EU5 160 SE 6SPD is a four-seat convertible with a folding hardtop, combining coupe-like comfort with open-air driving. In the UK market, it occupies a niche between family hatchbacks and traditional soft-top cabriolets, rather than serving as an SUV or city car. Mycarcheck.com records 156 checks covering 58 distinct VINs, a useful sample of cars shoppers have researched. Checked examples average 73,000 miles and around 4,000 miles annually; the average recorded private-sale value is £3,900. Owners have had about 2.8 previous keepers on average, so check each car’s history and condition carefully. This EOS suits couples, small households and commuters wanting an everyday car with special weekend appeal; rear space and boot room are less family-friendly than a hatchback. Its 1.4-litre petrol engine and six-speed manual offer lively performance, while the retractable roof distinguishes it from Golf Cabriolet rivals in its class.
