AI Market Summary

**Strong petrol engine efficiency and responsive handling** — A3 delivers good fuel economy and agile dynamics for Irish commutes; solid build quality overall.
**Market heating up — prices up 26% year-on-year**, suggesting strong demand but less room for negotiation; median €29k sits mid-range for age and mileage.
**Carbon buildup on direct-injection valves common after 80k km** — watch for rough idle, hesitation, or reduced power; request full service history to confirm fuel system maintenance.
**If DSG dual-clutch fitted, inspect for judder at low speeds or traffic stops** — Mechatronic unit failures are documented; manual or conventional auto is safer bet; get pre-purchase diagnostic.
**Check NCT history and upcoming test date** — five-year-old car needs biennial test; any advisory marks signal potential costs before purchase.
