AI Market Summary

Practical diesel SUV with good load space and driving position; strong demand pushing prices up 27% year-on-year, so buy soon if interested.
Median mileage sits at 114k km — above the 60–110k range for this age. Check mileage carefully and service history to confirm gentle use.
DPF clogging is real risk on this diesel, especially if previous owner did short urban trips. Verify forced regenerations aren't frequent in service records.
Inspect common rail injectors (2.0 TDI) for rough idle or hesitation; premature wear common around 80k km. Budget €500–€800 for replacement if needed.
DSG gearbox judder under low-speed load (hill starts, car parks) has been reported; software updates help but don't always cure it — test drive carefully on slopes.
NI import saves €579 before VRT applies on top; check if extra paperwork and import logistics offset the saving for your location.
