Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks

In the UK used-car market it sits among affordable compact convertibles rather than practical family hatchbacks, with its rounded shape and folding roof giving it more character than many everyday small cars.

Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £900 and average recorded mileage of 94,000 miles; average annual mileage is 3,000.
