AI Market Summary

e-Golf delivers excellent fuel costs and zero-emission credentials, but battery degradation and limited real-world range require priority inspection.
Well-priced relative to petrol Golfs; median €14,975 reflects strong market demand for EV practicality, though residual value remains uncertain long-term.
MIB3 infotainment freeze-ups and touchscreen lag are common—test Apple CarPlay/Android Auto thoroughly; battery health report (Volkswagen diagnostic check) is essential before purchase.
Request full service history and battery warranty status; confirm whether original 8-year battery guarantee remains valid or has transferred to new owner.
NI import saves €361 before VRT applies on top—factor in registration and handling costs; savings may narrow after tax.

Important caveats

NI import estimates assume the car is NI-registered (not GB-origin). GB-origin cars add customs duty (6.5%) + import VAT (23%), potentially €3,000–€6,000 more.
Revenue may assess a different OMSP than the ROI median shown above.
NOx levy for diesel can vary from €600 to €3,500+ depending on the vehicle's individual emissions figure.
Cars 4+ years old require an NCT before ROI registration.
Always verify the V5C registration history and get a quote from Revenue.ie before purchasing.
