The SSANGYONG RODIUS (2006-13) 5DR MPV 2.7D DPF 165 ES 7 SEAT is a large, seven-seat diesel MPV rather than an SUV or family hatchback. In the UK used-car market it is an uncommon, value-focused choice, offering people-moving space for less than many rivals such as the Ford Galaxy or Volkswagen Sharan. mycarcheck.com has recorded 30 checks across 19 different VINs, so its figures offer a useful snapshot rather than a market-wide verdict. These cars averaged £3,300 in private-sale value and 77,000 miles; recorded annual use averaged 4,000 miles, while the typical car had around four previous keepers. With seven seats and a roomy cabin, the Rodius is best for larger families, car-pooling or holidays with bulky luggage. Its distinctive, often divisive shape prioritises practicality over style, and the torquey diesel suits steady longer journeys. As with any older used MPV, check service history, condition and seat operation before buying.
