The VAUXHALL ADAM (2012-20) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.2I ECOFLEX SS 70 EU6 ENERGISED is a compact, three-door city car, designed for easy everyday driving rather than carrying a large family. It occupies the stylish small-car end of the UK hatchback market, where personal design and manoeuvrability matter. Mycarcheck.com recorded 5,969 checks across 2,278 different VINs, a substantial sample. With its economical 1.2-litre petrol engine and stop-start system, the ADAM suits short urban trips, commuting and errands, especially for singles, couples or first-time drivers. Checks show an average recorded mileage of 36,000 miles and annual use of about 7,000 miles, suggesting relatively modest use among cars checked. The average number of previous keepers is around 1.75. Its distinctive, customisable styling helps it stand out against rivals such as the Fiat 500 and MINI, while its small footprint makes parking simple. Mycarcheck’s average private-sale valuation is £6,100; condition and history still matter most.
