What these numbers are built on

  • 188.468UK MOT testsroadworthiness inspections on this model at this age. The reliability and repair figures are read off them.

  • 1.369comparable foreign listingssecond-hand adverts from a market without registration tax, converted and then calibrated against real Danish asking prices.

How sure are we about the price?

high confidence. Based on 1369 comparable foreign listings. The final number is adjusted with a correction factor of 0.46x found by checking a sample of Danish asking prices against our raw estimate. Read more on the methodology page.

How sure are we about reliability?

low confidence (two sources, 1.31 standard deviations apart). UK and Norwegian tests disagree substantially on this model's reliability in this age band. We still show a weighted average, but the disagreement is real, not sampling noise, so treat this figure with more caution than usual. Read more on the methodology page.
