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 10 years old and 92,000 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
- You regularly help children or passengers into the rear: fewer doors can make access awkward. Try your child seats and usual passenger routine before deciding.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
Most 2016 up!s use the 1.0-litre three‑cylinder petrol which is simple, cheap to run and usually quite reliable. Automatic versions commonly use Volkswagen’s small automated‑manual unit (ASG/robotised), which saves effort in traffic but can feel a little jerky at low speeds — check the gearbox history and for any software/recall updates. Interior and boot space are modest, so expect limited rear legroom and luggage compared with larger hatchbacks.
- Confirm the auto is Volkswagen’s ASG/robotised gearbox: test low‑speed pull‑away and gear changes for jerking or slip and ask about any gearbox servicing/software updates.
- Listen for engine or transmission vibration at motorway speeds and check that the engine mounts are not deteriorated (common after higher miles).
- Inspect wheelarches, sills and door bottoms for surface corrosion or bubbling paint on a 10‑year car.
- Check front suspension/steering for knocks and uneven tyre wear (worn drop links, top mounts or steering rack play).
- Verify rear seat comfort and ISOFIX anchor condition if you plan to carry child seats — rear space is tight on the up!.
