AI Market Summary

Plug-in hybrid appeal: zero-emission city driving, tax benefits, but battery health is critical at this age—verify recent capacity testing.
Pricing fair for market: median €22.4k reflects age and hybrid complexity; expect higher servicing costs than petrol equivalents.
Battery management is key: cooling fan failures common; demand proof of recent thermal system service and current state-of-health report before committing.
Before buying, get independent diagnostic scan for high-voltage faults—loss of hybrid mode or warning lights signal expensive inverter or software work ahead.
Mileage at 225k km sits above typical Irish usage; verify service history shows battery maintenance records and thermal checks.
