AI Market Summary

Solid diesel reliability overall, but DPF clogging is real risk — ask seller for service history confirming regular motorway/longer drives and successful regeneration cycles.
Median mileage sits notably above Irish average usage; verify odometer readings independently and check NCT history for any failed emissions tests flagging DPF trouble.
1.6 CRDi engine prone to injector carbon buildup and rough idle, especially on budget fuel — insist on recent combustion clean or compression test before purchase.
Value holding well (+13.7% year-on-year), but at €11,950 median you're paying for a popular, practical family car — no bargain, fair market price for condition.
Before signing, test low-speed manoeuvres (parking, tight turns) in manual variants to feel for transmission shudder; any hesitation suggests worn clutch or gearbox wear ahead.
