Common issues to watch

  • •1.2 DIG-T petrols can suffer timing-chain stretch and turbo or oil-consumption problems; the 1.5 dCi is tough but needs injector and DPF care.
  • •CVT automatics can shudder and fail — a manual is the safer buy.
  • •Check the rear suspension and wheel bearings, and look for electrical faults in the media system and cameras.

What to check before you buy

  • Listen for chain and turbo noise on 1.2 DIG-T cars.
  • Test a CVT thoroughly on a long drive if it's an automatic.
  • Review MOT history for suspension and bearing advisories.

Our verdict
