The VAUXHALL MERIVA (2010-13) 5DR MPV 1.4 T 16V 120 EU5 EXCITE LIMITED EDITION is a compact five-door people carrier, offering more upright seating and cabin flexibility than a hatchback without the bulk of a full-size MPV. In the UK used-car market, it suits buyers wanting practical space at an affordable price. Its 1.4-litre turbo Excite Limited Edition balances useful performance for town trips and longer journeys, while the Meriva’s signature rear-hinged back doors make access easier in tight parking spaces. Flexible rear seating and a roomy cabin make it a sensible choice for small families, older passengers and commuters; it competes with the Ford B-Max, Honda Jazz and Citroën C3 Picasso. mycarcheck.com has recorded just five checks across four VINs, so these figures are a small snapshot, not a reliability verdict: average recorded mileage is 90,000, annual mileage 3,000 and 3.2 previous keepers. The average private-sale valuation is £2,100.
