In the UK market, it sits alongside the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and Audi A6 as a capable long-distance car. Mycarcheck.com has six look-ups covering five VINs, so these figures are a small snapshot, not a market-wide guide. Average private-sale valuation is £6,600, recorded mileage averages 77,000, and annual mileage 13,000. Cars averaged 2.3 previous keepers. This diesel saloon suits commuters, business drivers and families needing room for trips.
