The VAUXHALL MERIVA (2013-18) 5DR MPV 1.6 CDTI ECOFLEX DPF SS 95 EU6 TECH LINE is a compact five-door family MPV: taller and more practical than a hatchback, but easier to manage than a people carrier. In the UK used-car market, it offers sensible everyday space without an SUV’s bulk. The 1.6-litre diesel suits commuters and families making longer journeys; its flexible cabin handles school runs, shopping and weekends. Tech Line trim gives this Meriva a well-equipped feel. Practical and economical, it stands apart from hatchbacks, while Ford B-Max rivals offer similar compact-MPV versatility. Its rear-hinged doors ease passenger access.
