AI Market Summary

Excellent daily workhorse: strong fuel economy, punchy TSI engine, sharp handling, reliable MQB platform foundation.
Fair pricing at median €26,900 — slight annual decline (-1.9%) reflects market maturation; petrol Golfs hold value well relative to rivals.
Watch TSI carbon build-up risk above 80,000 km: rough idle and hesitation develop without preventive intake cleaning; request full service history and ask about carbon cleaning.
Before purchase, test low-speed DSG creeping (car parks, traffic) for judder; dealership software updates usually resolve it, but confirm work done or negotiate labour cost.
NI import saves €1,493 before VRT applies on top — weigh against convenience of Irish dealer warranty and immediate NCT eligibility (2022 car due 2026).
