2006 Audi A3 2.0L Diesel · EA56 ABF

The 2006 Audi A3 holds a clean roadworthiness status with a pass on 2026-01-16 at 88,222 miles and no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, showing no deterioration across fifteen consecutive annual tests from 2011 to 2026. This consistent pass record indicates the previous keeper maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoided advisories and failures throughout its documented life. The mileage pattern reflects low annual usage of roughly 4,400 miles per year, which is below average for a twenty-year-old car. The odometer advanced steadily from 38,138 miles in September 2011 to 88,222 miles in January 2026, with no anomalous gaps or sudden jumps in the recorded data. Test dates remain evenly spaced at annual intervals, and the most recent entry sits only six months before the current date, confirming the vehicle is still in regular service. The record shows no recurring faults or structural defects, so the buyer should inspect age-related wear items that may not appear as MOT failures until they are advanced. The suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs on a high-mileage Audi A3 warrant particular attention, as does any corrosion affecting the underbody or structural integrity. The buyer should measure brake components and exhaust emissions directly, since low annual mileage can mask uneven wear or surface corrosion on braking surfaces that only becomes apparent under heavier use.
