Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 4 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- Many journeys are local or relatively short: petrol can fit that use without choosing diesel just for occasional long trips.
- You want practical access for everyday shopping and bags: the hatchback opening may suit your routine. Check actual boot space.
- You would prefer less gear changing in traffic: the recorded automatic transmission may suit. Try how this exact gearbox behaves on a test drive.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 4 people together: the advert records 4 seats, including the driver.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 12 years old and 145,000 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
Most 2014 Up!s use the 1.0‑litre three‑cylinder petrol and dealers often list the 5‑speed automated manual (ASG) as 'automatic' — it’s not a traditional torque‑converter auto. The engine itself is frugal and cheap to maintain, but the ASG/mechatronic clutch unit can be more fussy than a manual: look for a documented gearbox/clutch service history. Boot and rear-seat space are very limited compared with larger hatchbacks.
- ASG automated‑manual behaviour: test for smooth take‑off, hesitation, jerking or long delays when changing from reverse to drive and during stop‑start traffic.
- Clutch/mechatronic service history and any history of clutch replacement or gearbox module work (automated clutches wear faster in town use).
- Suspension knocks and worn top‑mounts — listen for clunks over potholes and check for uneven tyre wear on a 12‑year car.
- Rust around rear wheelarches, sills and under the boot floor — inspect underside and wheel arch edges carefully.
- Tyre age (DOT code) and general condition; low‑use city cars often keep old tyres that look OK but are past their safe age.
