AI Market Summary

Compact SUV practicality with reasonable fuel economy for diesel; holds value well in Irish market with year-on-year gains.
Fairly priced at median; NI imports appear €4,207 cheaper before VRT applies on top—verify final cost with dealer.
Eight-year-old diesel units generally robust, but check service history closely; extended warranty worth exploring given age and mileage.
Inspect turbocharger condition and DPF (diesel particulate filter) status before purchase; both are common wear items on this generation.
NI import saving quoted before VRT—add registration and NOx levy; total cost may narrow the apparent discount significantly.
