Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 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 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 10 years old and 71,000 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 2016 up!s use the 1.0‑litre three‑cylinder petrol which is simple and economical; the automatic option is an ASG automated‑manual rather than a conventional torque‑converter box. ASG makes town driving convenient but can feel jerky at low speeds and may need specific gearbox/clutch servicing; boot space and rear legroom are small so it’s not ideal as a main family car. Parts are common across VW networks in Ireland and running costs, road tax and insurance are typically low.
- ASG (automated manual) gearbox behaviour: test low‑speed take‑off and parking manoeuvres for jerking or hunting, and ask for records of any gearbox/clutch or mechatronic work.
- Clutch and actuator wear: check for slipping, delayed engagement or a burnt smell after short urban runs (automated clutches can wear faster in town use).
- Rust and corrosion around sills, wheelarches and the boot floor (10 years old is when small cars often show surface rust from salted roads).
- Tyre age and suspension condition: look for uneven tyre wear, perished sidewalls (date codes), and knocks from worn shock tops or anti‑roll bar links after pothole use.
