AI Market Summary

Practical compact hatch with strong interior build quality and good practicality for families; torquey petrol engines feel responsive in everyday driving.
Median mileage of 74k km sits well *below* expected range for a 10-year-old — verify service history and odometer accuracy with seller before committing.
Mercedes electrics (door locks, sensors, infotainment) can develop faults post-warranty; suspension components wear at 80k–100k km on potholed Irish roads.
Pre-purchase: Have a Mercedes-trained mechanic inspect the automatic gearbox for hesitation or clunking between gears; transmission repairs are expensive.
Pricing appears fair relative to market; only 3 active listings suggest steady, not rushed, demand — room to negotiate if NCT failures emerge during inspection.
