AI Market Summary

Excellent city car — nimble handling, low running costs, and tight turning circle ideal for Irish urban driving and tight car parks.
Median price €7,725 sits fair for a 10-year-old; competitive against Vauxhall Corsa and Ford Fiesta peers, but verify mileage authenticity given scatter below expected range.
Carbon buildup on direct injection valves common past 80,000 km — causes rough idle and hesitation. Timing chain tensioner wear reported 100k+ km; listen for cold-start rattle before purchase.
Inspect window regulators and dashboard electrics during test drive; check for intermittent warning lights and smooth window operation — electrical gremlins crop up on this generation.
Request full service history and compression test if mileage near or above 100,000 km to rule out chain tensioner or valve carbon issues.
