The VOLKSWAGEN SHARAN (2010-15) 5DR MPV 2.0 TDI BLUEMOTION TECH DPF SS 140 SEL 6SPD is a large, family-focused people carrier rather than an SUV or ordinary hatchback. In the UK used-car market, it sits among practical seven-seat MPVs, offering flexible space for growing families, school runs and holidays too. Among 295 mycarcheck.com look-ups, 124 VINs were recorded, a sample; average latest mileage was 120,000, with 9,000 miles driven yearly. Checks show two previous keepers on average, while average private-sale valuation was £6,000. These figures offer context, not a substitute for checking a car’s history and condition. It combines a strong diesel engine with a comfortable SEL cabin; sliding doors and flexible seating ease family life. Suited to long trips and daily school runs, the Sharan competes with the Ford Galaxy and SEAT Alhambra, standing out for refinement, generous room and versatility.
