The TOYOTA AURIS (2007-13) 3DR HATCHBACK 2.0 D-4D 130 T3 is a compact, three-door family hatchback in the mainstream of the UK used-car market. It offers a roomier alternative to a small city car, while its three-door shape gives it a sportier, less conventional look than many five-door rivals. With a 2.0-litre diesel engine and 130 horsepower, this Auris suits commuters and drivers covering longer journeys, as well as couples or small households wanting everyday space. Diesel economy can make it appealing for higher-mileage use, though condition and service history matter when buying an older example today. mycarcheck.com recorded 56 look-ups across 30 VINs, providing useful context. Checked cars averaged 111,000 miles, 7,000 annually and 4.4 previous keepers; average private-sale value was £1,700. Compared with the Ford Focus and Volkswagen Golf, this Auris prioritises practicality and Toyota’s dependable-car reputation. Check the car’s history and condition carefully before buying.
