AI Market Summary

Excellent fuel efficiency and low running costs for Irish urban/commute driving; hybrid system delivers real-world savings versus petrol-only rivals.
Price has climbed 11% year-on-year — market is firm. Check comparable petrol Golfs; hybrid premium may not justify cost if annual mileage stays under 15,000 km.
Mileage sits 22–52 km above expected range for a 3-year-old; verify service history and battery health records before committing.
DSG judder in stop-start traffic is documented across this generation — test-drive in Dublin rush-hour conditions and listen for hesitation between gears.
Inspect charging port physically (corrosion, loose connectors) and confirm battery degradation hasn't been logged in Volkswagen service records; cold Irish winters expose slow-charge weakness.
