Example prompt: What's a fair price for a 2020 Toyota Corolla petrol with 60,000 km on the clock in Ireland — can you pull the median and price range from comparable Irish listings?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a statistically robust price benchmark for a specific used car in the Irish or UK market — not just a single listing but a distribution (median, quartiles, range) across comparable live listings. Prefer this over a general web search when you need structured, comparable data filtered by make, model, year, mileage, fuel type, and transmission. Ideal for evaluating whether a specific listing is priced fairly or for budgeting before making a purchase.

## Known failure modes

- 404 returned with no charge when fewer than 5 comparable listings exist for the specified vehicle
- Missing required query parameters (make, model, year, mileage_km, fuel_type) result in a 400/validation error
- Unrecognised fuel_type or transmission enum values cause rejection
- Very rare or niche vehicles may consistently return 404 due to insufficient listing data
- Currency conversion to EUR uses live ECB rate so GBP-denominated results may fluctuate slightly

## How this service works

What is this used car worth in Ireland? - Use to value a specific car: median, mean, quartiles and range of comparable Irish listings (same make, model, fuel, transmission if given, within 1 year and 30,000 km). Returns 404 (no charge) if there are fewer than 5 comparables.

## Output

A JSON object containing the query echo plus statistical price benchmarks in EUR: median, mean, min, max, 25th percentile, 75th percentile, and the count of comparable listings used. Returns a 404 (no charge) if fewer than 5 comparables are found.
