AI Market Summary

Spacious seven-seater premium SUV with excellent towing capacity and refined interior — strong family hauler with good residual appeal.
Fairly priced at median €25,888; compare closely with BMW X5 and Audi Q7 diesel of same age to confirm fair value.
DPF regeneration problems common on urban-driven or short-trip examples; diesel injector carbon buildup and turbo wear risk on high-mileage units.
Before purchase, request full service history and DPF regeneration log — attend inspection with mechanic, run engine cold to listen for rough idle.
