AI Market Summary

Solid compact SUV with punchy petrol engine, good fuel economy for its class, and practical interior for families or urban drivers.
Mileage sits well below Irish average — 47k km on a 5-year-old car suggests light use or city-only driving; verify service history and odometer accuracy.
DSG gearbox hesitation in slow traffic is documented on this generation; test extensively in stop-start conditions before committing. Water ingress into door seals reported — inspect seals and check for damp smells inside.
Infotainment glitches (Bluetooth dropouts, screen freeze) are common; update software in advance and test all connectivity functions during viewing. Check door jambs and rubber seals carefully for moisture or mould.
Fairly priced for Irish market with steady demand; no unusual overvaluation, but negotiate on known software issues or evidence of water damage.
