The CITROEN SAXO (1996-03) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.4 DESIRE AUTO is a small three-door city hatchback from the late 1990s and early 2000s. Its compact size suits town driving and parking, while the automatic gearbox makes it easy to drive. Today, it is a budget-priced older car, not a modern family hatchback. Mycarcheck.com records 47 look-ups across 10 distinct VINs, a useful snapshot but a modest sample. Average latest recorded mileage is 41,000, and average annual mileage is 3,000. Vehicles in the data have had about 5.3 previous keepers on average, while the average private-sale valuation is £200. This Saxo suits short local journeys, first-time owners wanting an inexpensive runabout, or drivers seeking a second car, rather than families needing space or motorway comfort. Against Ford Fiesta, Vauxhall Corsa and Peugeot 106 rivals, it offers compact motoring; the Desire automatic stands out for convenient town use. At age, check condition and service history.
