AI Market Summary

**City car practicality shines:** tight turning circle, easy parking, low fuel consumption ideal for urban Irish commutes and compact streets.
**Pricing stable but creeping up:** €13,723 median reflects steady 6.6% YoY gains—fair value now, but worth negotiating given modest six-listing supply and 29-day sell pace.
**PureTech engine carbon issue real risk:** after 80,000 km, rough idle and hesitation emerge on direct-injection engines fed poor-quality fuel. Demand fuel receipt history and consider carbon cleaning costs pre-purchase.
**Electrical niggles common:** intermittent warning lights, infotainment freezes, and rare power steering dropouts reported. Test all dashboard functions, infotainment responsiveness, and steering assist through full lock before committing.
**Gearbox cold engagement rough on manuals:** 1st and 2nd gear grinding when engine cold is known fault. Drive on cold start and shift deliberately to confirm smoothness, especially critical for manual boxes.

The 1.2-litre PureTech petrol engine is relatively simple with a timing chain (not belt), reducing major service intervals; however, direct injection engines require quality fuel and occasional carbon cleaning to prevent deposit build-up.
