AI Market Summary

Solid mid-range family saloon with strong refinement and efficient 1.4–1.5 TSI petrol engines; practical cabin and reasonable fuel economy for everyday driving.
Fairly priced at median — few competitors offer comparable space and comfort at €24k; check against equivalent Skoda Superb or Ford Mondeo to confirm value.
Carbon buildup on direct-injection valves common post-80k km; mileage at 112k means inspect for rough idle, hesitation on acceleration, or loss of power at motorway speeds.
Test DSG gearbox thoroughly in heavy traffic — listen for judder or lag during low-speed crawl; minor hesitation often worsens and costs €1,500+ to repair.
Verify infotainment (MIB2 screen) responds smoothly during handover; freezing or Bluetooth drop is annoying and dealer reset may be needed — not safety-critical but frustrating on daily commute.
