AI Market Summary

Timing chain rattle on cold start is common; inspect at dealer or specialist before purchase—worse in under-driven examples due to VVT stress.
Electric power steering pump failures typically emerge 60k–80k miles; test steering feel at idle and during slow maneuvers, confirm service history.
Panoramic sunroof seal failure causes water ingress into interior and boot—check for damp odor, trim staining, or visible moisture around headliner edges.
Prices up 23.6% year-on-year; median €16,128 sits mid-range for supply. Reliable petrol engines offset by electrical/mechanical weaknesses—fair value if service history is complete.
86k median mileage aligns with Irish average; verify NCT pass status (due every 2 years from age 4) and full-service stamps before agreeing price.
