Description

This 2017 Vauxhall Adam Energised is a lively and economical little hatch that feels at home in town and confident on longer runs. The 1.2 petrol and manual gearbox deliver a responsive, predictable driving experience with light steering and a composed ride; city mode and cruise control make parking and motorway driving straightforward. The cabin is tidy and ergonomically laid out, with leather-trimmed touches adding a smart feel.
Practicality is a strong suit for such a compact car: comfortable seating for four, a split-folding rear and useful storage make everyday life simple. With low miles, a full service history and distinctive gloss-black 17in alloys with a contrasting roof, it’s an ideal, economical first car that stands out for style and usability.
