AI Market Summary

Strong fuel economy and low running costs for urban/commute use; nimble handling typical of A-Class appeals to Irish city drivers.
Fairly valued at median €14,950 — prices up 20% year-on-year, but still accessible entry to Mercedes badge and diesel efficiency.
DPF regeneration failures are the critical weak point on this generation; limp mode and €800–€1,500 repair bills are common. Electrical gremlins (fuel gauge, engine warning lights) and AdBlue sensor faults also plague this year. Request full service history proving regular DPF maintenance.
Before buying, insist on a pre-purchase OBD scan to check for stored fault codes, especially DPF regeneration events and AdBlue system warnings — hidden electrical faults won't always show driveway symptoms.
At 123k km median, mileage sits comfortably within expected range for a 9-year-old Irish car; verify odometer consistency against service records to confirm no gaps.
