Insight summary

Daihatsu Sirion is a very rare model in this snapshot, with 4,740 represented vehicles and 0.01% of the active UK pool tracked by AutoRank. For the last 5 years, it has a pass rate of 71.9% from 43,491 MOT tests, with a reliability score of 51. The current pool shows an average of 79,042 miles and an average age of 17.8 years, while mature-fleet mileage is estimated at 79,042 miles. Petrol leads the fuel split, followed by other, and the most frequent defect themes are suspension joints, lighting and windscreen damage. The practical read is that the Daihatsu Sirion looks like a solid used-car baseline rather than a rare find, with age, mileage and common wear items doing most of the explaining.
