The DAIHATSU TERIOS (1997-05) 5DR STATION WAGON 1.3 LIMITED EDITION AUTO4 is a compact, five-door mini-SUV: taller and more rugged-looking than a small hatchback, but easier to manage than a large 4x4. In the UK used-car market, it offers an older, budget-friendly route to a practical, high-driving-position vehicle. The automatic gearbox and compact footprint make this Terios appealing for town errands, commuting and country-lane trips, while five doors and a useful wagon-shaped cabin suit couples or small families needing everyday flexibility. Its simple, upright character and go-anywhere styling distinguish it from ordinary small cars; it is a more compact, less imposing alternative to larger SUVs and a practical rival to the Suzuki Jimny. mycarcheck.com has two look-ups, covering one VIN, so figures are indicative only: £500 average private-sale value, 60,000 recorded miles, 33,000 average annual miles and seven previous keepers. The annual-mileage figure is unusually high; verify mileage and history on any example before buying.
