The DAIHATSU SIRION (1998-05) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.3 SL is a small, five-door hatchback positioned in the UK as an affordable city car. Its compact footprint helps with traffic and parking, while rear doors make it more useful than a tiny two-door runabout. Mycarcheck.com records 80 checks across 37 distinct vehicles. Checks suggest budget-conscious buyers may appreciate its average private-sale valuation of £700. Average recorded mileage is 74,000, with annual mileage of 3,000. Cars checked had about 3.5 previous keepers on average, so condition and service history deserve attention. It suits commuters, first-time drivers and small households needing simple everyday transport. Its appeal is its roomy-for-its-size five-door layout and uncomplicated, upright shape, making it more practical than many small runabouts. The 1.3-litre engine gives it a little more flexibility than the smallest city cars, though buyers should judge an ageing example on its upkeep. A distinctive, sensible alternative to familiar rivals.
