The VAUXHALL MERIVA (2013-18) 5DR MPV 1.7 CDTI DPF 110 EU5 SE AUTO6 is a compact five-door people-carrier, offering a taller, roomier alternative to a conventional family hatchback without the bulk of a large SUV. In the UK used-car market, it sits among practical small MPVs such as the Ford B-Max and Citroën C3 Picasso. Its diesel engine and six-speed automatic make it a relaxed choice for commuting and longer journeys, while the upright cabin and flexible seating work well for family trips, school runs and shopping. Rear-hinged back doors are a distinctive Meriva feature, helping passengers get in and out more easily in tight spaces. It suits buyers wanting practicality and comfort over sporty handling. mycarcheck.com records 130 look-ups across 25 VINs.
